    Tips

    Cycling

    Sir William Hill Road is an ancient packhorse route and a former section of the 1758 Sheffield-Buxton Turnpike.

    Today it provides an engaging challenge in both ascent and descent - the gravel trail is rough and stony.

    Large gravel rocks line this descent toward Grindleford

    Cycling

    Passable on a gravel bike but the descent on the Grindleford side is very rocky and a mountain bike is advised.
