An Easter treat, originally made just for Patreon. From Congleton Park you head up to the Macclesfield Canal for a stretch, then leave it to join the Gritstone Trail to the foot of the Cloud.
The climb to the top of Bosley Cloud is short and steep, and the view over the Cheshire Plain is one of the best around. Then it's back down and home to Congleton. Nine miles.
