PEAK FOREST CANAL WALK - MARPLE AQUEDUCT & MARPLE VIADUCT

[@allencrider]

The Marple aqueduct and Marple viaduct are marvels of the early industrial age.

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

They certainly are!

[@susanmansfield8025]

A walk incooperating all my favourites. Canals; ferns; woods and a quintessential English village. Thank you Mary x

[@keithcarper8809]

I really enjoyed our walk today. Such diversity of sights and sounds and the marvels of Marple. Aqueduct and Viaduct and lily pad hopping baby ducts. (sic). Thanks Tink!

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Yay - so glad you enjoyed it Keith 😊

[@anitavincent7447]

Looks like a machete would have been in order to get you through the overgrown trail. So much history and gorgeous sights. Love the canal with the boats , this way of life has always intrigued me, romantic but difficult I’m sure. Once again you’ve captivated me on your adventure and I’m so thankful. 🙏🏻🥰

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

So true 😆 I'm so pleased you enjoyed this one Anita, thank you 😊

[@derekfox5510]

What a fabulous video sweetheart 😘

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thank you darling😘

[@tommckinney1489]

Thanks for the video, Mary. The canal with the locks was interesting.

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Glad you enjoyed it Tom 😊

[@andrewmatley7688]

another lovely walk along the peak forest canal so much to explore my neck off the woods iv been walking this route for 15 years both ways thank you for filming.

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Wonderful area to visit - I really enjoyed it!

[@HikeandSeeker]

I follow a couple of Narrow boat channels. I must say it's great to get a walking perspective from the tow path. Great photography and soothing music thank you.

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Great to hear - thank you so much Hike and Seeker!

[@memathews]

What a wonderful walk. The canal and locks, the viaduct and aqueduct, the Brabyns Park bridge, all in one day, along with some forest and fields walking. That's a really special area, thank you for showing us.

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

So glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@bettyjorodgers8552]

Thank you for showing us beauty, smiles and peaceful countryside. Gorgeous. Blessings

[@BrianthatiscalledBrian]

Thank you, Mary. I love these tour/history lessons. 👍🙂

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Yay - so glad you like them Brian 😊

[@jimmyjenkins9240]

Think had to bushwhack on this hike! It was lovely and informative, as usual.

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thank you Jimmy 😊

[@theoutdoordogandhikinggirl]

Well, that is something else than the mountains, but it looks like a nice walk. So funny how you keep following the same boat.

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

I know, I think he thought I was stalking him 😂

Mary, beautiful horses 🤔🤑 fast, Pocotó, Pocotó, Pocotó 🐎 trem bão. Menina com um cavalo desse eu vou tranquilo pela estrada real 🎩 Girl with a horse like this I go calmly along the royal road, I felt firm

[@Mtnsunshine]

Yes, you put yourself in harms way ☺️ in order to create such wonderful videos for us. 😁. Sorry for any injuries! Do you know if those canal boats use electric motors for their propulsion? Such a tight fit for them. And seeing structures built around 1800 still in use today….and one with the fast moving train across it…is a testament to the craftsmen and designers who built them so many, many years ago.

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

It was a jungle out there 😂 I believe diesel engines are the most common type of engine used although I know there are some electric ones out there. You are so right about the engineers/architects, they certainly built things to last!

[@richardross7219]

Very interesting. The locks seem too narrow for the boats. A great video. Your local government should be paying you for the publicity that you are doing for them. Good Luck, Rick

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thank you Richard. It is certainly narrow in places - a few of the boats bumped the sides along the way which I pretended not to see 😆

[@gurulamb7869]

Looked like a nice little walk that 👍🏻

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thank you!

[@michaeljohnson896]

Always a beautiful adventure with you!!!

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Thank you Michael 😊

[@Swimdeep]

Trees! 🌳 🌲🌿

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Yay 🌲🌳

Enjoyed this video. I loved the lily pond and moorhens. I used to live in the UK and love the English countryside. Derbyshire and the Peak District are some of my favourite places. It's a pity you aren't interested in wildflowers because you passed some interesting ones (like at 6:53). I will have to check out your other videos.

[@dustybaggins9914]

Fabulous video! It’s a walk I do regularly with my wife, thank you 😊

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Yay 😊

[@Mtnsunshine]

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

It really is isn't it. Glad you enjoyed it Tracy!

[@hu_b]

Nice shots of the moorhens in the pond. Do you see badgers other than the ones pictured on signs?

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Very rarely on my daytime walks, only once in the Lake District. However I see them near home on an evening as I know where there is a sett so often stand still for an hour or so and they pass by.

[@hu_b]

Maybe fodder for a video -- "My Badger Neighbor."

[@manchesterukabriefvideooftime]

Good morning 😀 I've finally found somebody. Who gets it. 👍

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Good Morning 😊

[@lisawong4559]

Do you have the actual route for this as I can’t find it on the net? Thanks in advance

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

Hi Lisa. Yes I linked it in the video description. I plotted it on OS Maps - here it is for you; osmaps.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/route/4840526/Country-Walking-Peak-Forest-Canal-Marple-Aqueduct-Greater-Manchester

[@serigrapher2]

My patch. Not bad is it?

[@MarysOutdoorAdventures]

It’s certainly a lovely area, I went back last month and did the walk again with my Mum who also loved it 😁
