Manchester's extensive network of green trails has undergone a significant relaunch, introducing updated online maps and informative posters across 15 distinct routes. These trails are designed to connect the city's parks, green spaces, and waterways, making them more accessible for residents seeking outdoor activity.

The revamped trail system, originally established in 2012 and previously updated in 2018, aims to encourage more people to engage with nature locally without needing to travel far. Representatives from the Manchester and Salford Ramblers Association highlight the ease and benefits of walking within the city, suggesting it’s a great way to make friends and stay active with minimal gear.

This collaborative project involves The Ramblers, Manchester City Council, Transport for Greater Manchester, and Manchester Active. City officials emphasize the importance of these green spaces for resident wellbeing and are optimistic that the updated trails will help people discover hidden gems within Manchester.
