There are a few different routes to make your way upto Abney but this for me is one of the best. It's hilly all the way up but plateauxs a few times before climbing up again, it's generally always very quiet and offers wonderful views over Hope Valley as you climb. There are a few trails leading off the road that are great if you are on a gravel bike or similar too.

Peak District classic, long climb at 6.7km but lots of harder and easier stages and always rewarding views, never too much suffering to enjoy it!

Brilliant climb with stunning views, easily one of my favourite Peaks climbs. Usually it's fairly quiet car-wise along here too. Although I always underestimate this climb, it really does go on and on and on - as do the great views😁
