People going on Canal Boat Holidays in the Pennines have been given details of a fascinating walk in the region.

The Lancashire Evening Post recommended that people take the 11-kilometre walk around the Widdop Reservoir to make the most of the great outdoors.

It should take around three to four hours to complete and is described as a 'demanding moorland walk'.

The route covers a number of interesting areas, including Grey Stone Hill, Dove Stone and Burnley Way, ensuring visitors can get a true picture of the Pennines.

'It is a landscape of sweeping moors littered with outcrops of millstone grit eroded into weird forms by the action of wind, water and ice,' the article explained.
