Banish the blues and get out and about!
This week saw Blue Monday come and
go! If the dark days and chilly weather are getting you down, why not make the
most of the daylight hours and get out and about on one of the many walks
around Greater Manchester?
According to Walking for Health, a good walk can have a real feel good factor and boost our mood. It’s the perfect winter activity for the whole family – so get wrapped up, tie up your walking shoes and give one of these routes a try!

Hill, you can be certain of stunning views on this walk!

tow, this is the one for you! With over 30 sculptures over a stretch of 33
