Marsden is next to the National Trust Estate, so you can step out of the door and be on the Moor within minutes, no need for a car or to worry about parking. Numerous routes are available for all types of walkers, including the Pennine Way and the Colne Valley Circular.

Please visit www.nationaltrust.org.uk for full information on the walks available which also include organised walks, with a guide, all year round. The NT Estate, covering nearly 2429ha (5685 acres) of unenclosed common moorland almost surrounding the village of Marsden, takes in the northern part of the Peak District National Park, with valleys, reservoirs, peaks and crags, as well as archaeological remains dating from pre-Roman times to the great engineering structures of the canal and railway ages. The landscape supports large numbers of moorland birds such as the golden plover, red grouse, curlew and diminutive twite. The estate is a designated SSSI forming part of an international Special Protection Area and is a candidate Special Area of Conservation. At the National Trust Estate office, at the Old Goods Yard next to the Railway Station, is the ‘Welcome to Marsden’ exhibition, giving a good insight into the area.

Horse riding is available at the local stables.
