Brierfield Station to Nelson Station
A short, mostly flat and accessible route along the canal towpath and with a tarmacked footpath and short stretches of pavement at either end. The towpath is pleasant and interesting; there are several cycle barriers about 1.5m high. The towpath passes converted mills and several colourful mosaic panels of local scenes. There is significant noise from the M65, though mostly screened by woods.
