Sandstone Trail

The Sandstone Trail starts at the sculpture in Frodsham’s tree-lined Main Street whose traditional weekly market draws people from a wide area. The route climbs steadily past St Laurence’s Church and the charming Ring o’ Bells pub, before ascending steeply through the woods to the breezy summit of Frodsham/Overton Hill.

The view from here is stunning and takes in the Mersey Estuary, the Welsh hills and Liverpool’s distinctive skyline.

Beyond Overton Hill, the Trail skirts a series of sandstone bluffs along the upper rim of the wooded hills before dropping down steps into atmospheric Dunsdale Hollow.
To aid walker to take the correct route - The Peak & Northern Footpaths Society (PNFS) have erected a signpost at Abraham's Leap.
