Goyt Valley Place of Natural Beauty

A nice walk with pleasant views

Definitely a nice easy walk for people who just want to spend a few hour away from the city

Always great to go on a nature walk nearly every single evening with my wife and daughter.

This is in offerton, not far from the cricket club, to me goyt valley is off long hill not far from buxton derbyshire.

A really wonderful place to go walking. Really not too far out from Stockport but an area of great natural beauty nevertheless.

Excellent place to go for a drink in a local pub there or for a lovely picnic outside in the summer is beautiful it’s peaceful,Quiet & it’s amazing for walking or biking or even just going for a nice drive the views are amazing and it never gets tiring to go back again and again highly recommended

Beautiful place. I cycled through here as a kid with my father and sisters on my way from Stockport to my Grandads in Romiley. A lot of great memories.

The Goyt Valley in Stockport is a beautiful neglected corner, beautiful only because it has been neglected, a valley finger of fields and trees between the ridges of housing in Bredbury and Offerton; a place where wild birds and small mammals coexist with livestock and stabled horses, where a network of ancient pathways cut through arable and pasture fields provide routes for the walker, rider and cyclist, its future now determined by business case.
At council desks the valley has been drawn as a highway easement since 1926. The council has now been duped into believing the A6-M60 will relieve congestion around Stockport, but it will do no such thing, bypassing the town on its way to Manchester Airport, where Amazon, DHL, et al, reside. As land either side of suburban highways always reverts to sprawl in the form of car-dependent housing and retail sheds, the prospects for this green oasis are bleak.
