Holcombe Hill

An amazing walk, even in the snow....gorgeous views and we met some very friendly people along the way. The full walk with 2 kids and 2 dogs took us about 1 hour. But, there is a longer route if thats what you prefer....highly recommended 👌.

Absolutely Beautiful walk, accessible from multiple paths. We walked up behind the hair and hounds to the tower, then did a loop around towards the quarry. The view across greater Manchester was phenomenal as was the view of Manchester engulfed in a cloud of smog

One of the best walks in bury going up to peel tower and beyond onto Holcombe moor. If you're extra lucky you might get up to the tower and it's open and you can climb all the stairs and look out from the top.

Really nice to walk from the main road, down the side of Hoysters, up through the woods, and over the Moor before climbing Holcombe Hill 😊 On a clear day you can see Liverpool!

What a beautiful place to visit! We came to the area and did a 14 mile hike.
This hill were beautiful! We ate our packed lunch up here and took in the view

Steep, but a great walk up to the Peel Tower and then over the moors. Fantastic views past Manchester and beyond on a clear day to Snowdonia or Derbyshire.

Other than a brief visit in 2011, this was a favourite old haunt (hike) in my student days in the late '80's, and despite the overcast weather, the moderate trek up to Peel Tower surpassed expectations. Astonishing views (shame the pictures don't do them justice) plus could still make out Blackpool Tower despite the clouds ☁ especially how the landscape has changed over recent decades. A thoroughly enjoyable couple of hours to cap off a day's work! :)

Lovely walk, easy and quick ascent to the top and totally worth the views you have of Manchester. Only a short walk but lovely way to spend an afternoon.
