"What a lovely place. Did a 14 mile walk yesterday. Well kept paths. Parks very busy. Probably because it was a Sunday.? Only let down on the walk was the vast amount of litter. Lots on Wigan road and the most of it in bin bags in two brooks which was a disgrace especially when one Brook was opposite the recycling centre.!!!! But we will be doing the walk again. Plenty of new information boards which were very informative."
"Visited in Feb 23, starting from Cemetary Road, Ince in Makerfield. We walked around several of the flashes, covering about 4.5 miles. Despite the positive reviews, I came away feeling that it was an absolute embarrassment for Wigan and Wigan Council. Fly tipping, litter, poor maintenance - this place had all the negatives that ruined what could be a pretty walk. Also worth noting that during our entire walk there wasn't a single dustbin - so lots of dog poo bags hanging in trees ☹️"
