    Stage 19 of the GM Ringway, Greater Manchester's long-distance trail, uses almost totally traffic-free waterways and paths to explore some of Trafford's attractive green spaces.

    Highlights include:

    - Quiet paths and byways that give a flavour of Altrincham's past as a Cheshire market town
    - A little-known nature reserve off the Bridgewater Canal, with ponds and woodland
    - Worthington Park and Priory Gardens, havens of greenery close to Sale town centre
    - The shores of Sale Water Park, with its sailing boats and views over Broad Ees Dole nature reserve, rich in birdlife
    - A surprisingly quiet section of the canal south of Stretford town centre, where the passing boats often create a colourful scene.

    A few optional extensions are shown on the map, including an exploration of historic Brooklands Cemetery.

    About the Calorie Calculator

    Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

    When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

    Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
