We set off from home (twice, due to a forgotten fitbit) and headed down the track to Pingot Quarry, around the lane to the clay pigeon field and along the track to Newhey and Ogden Reservoir.

This is where the plan ended and the rest was pretty much decided as we went along.

We crossed the reservoir and went up (stopping for lunch at a handy wall) to the Rochdale Way and Station to Station Walk to Piethorne Reservoir, then along the Pennine Bridleway to Dowry Reservoir.  Along Moor Lane to Cow Crossroads,  where we joined the Oldham Way down to New Year's Bridge Reservoir and followed the road into Denshaw and back home.
