Fielden Trail
31 km / 19 miles
W Yorkshire
The Fielden Trail is a thematic history trail. It is not, however, a journey that involves an afternoon's gentle stroll around the 'sights' of Todmorden. On the contrary, it is a tough hike of some 19 miles or more involving a lot of repeated ascent and as much descent. Section 1 to Cornholme and Sections 2 and 3 to Dawson Weir and Rake End follow the upland shelf for much of the way, but Section 4 takes to the high moors, following a route which involves some rough going along the high moorland ridge between Gaddings and Stoodley Pike, not a journey to be undertaken badly equipped in inclement weather (which is the norm rather than the exception at Stoodley Pike).
