Trail
From the market the route heads north down Milltown Street, crossing the newly built Milltown Bridge. The route follows the canal, rising gradually to around 90 metres, before looping out toward Elton and Buckley Wells. The return runs south on the opposite bank, flat and straightforward all the way back to Radcliffe. A relaxed 9k with just 83 metres of ascent, with the new bridge crossing adding a fresh dimension to familiar canal side running.
This is one of the free running routes used by Run Together Radcliffe, a free running club meeting every Thursday at 7pm at Radcliffe Market. Everyone is welcome.
