The Cheshire Gritstone Trail is a long-distance footpath running from Disley in Cheshire to Kidsgrove, just over the border in Staffordshire. The total length of the trail is 35 miles (56 km), and it is split into three stages. The first stage, 10.3 miles in length, leads from Disley to Tegg's Nose; the second, of length 15.3 miles, from Tegg's Nose to Timbersbrook, is the best for obtaining a close look at gritstone scenery. The final stage of 9.3 miles runs from Timbersbrook to Kidsgrove.

The trail is waymarked with yellow discs with a footprint inscribed 'G'.
