Taxal Edge GPX

This 7.5 mile circular walk starts from The Street car park, and passes along a forest track before climbing up to the ridge of Taxal Edge. The walk then drops down to the attractive hamlet of Taxal, with its picturesque church, before returning along the bank of the River Goyt.

This wonderfully scenic and tranquil river-side section reveals what was lost when the valley was flooded. The GPX route returns along the western bank of Fernilee Reservoir, but there's the option of using the old railway track on the eastern side.
