Great coffee at grindhus

Gears 34 x 34 . Keep to outside of bend. Pace yourself

Superb off road cycle track, busy, great pub in Ripley the Boars Head.

This is a beautiful road to cycle down that follows the entire length of the reservoir. It's surrounded by rolling hills and farmland and provides great views of the Nidderdale Valley.

Visit on a bike and no payment for parking. Miles of walking . Nice cafe. The estate is owned by the Duke of Devonshire and is open to visitors who pay to park. Fascinating area, with loads of history. Monastery was founded in 1120 as a priory. The Embassy and Bolton Abbey Steam Railway runs from here. The Dales Way passes through the estate. It gets really busy during the summer when visitors bring picnics and paddle in the river.

In 1748 Baroness Clifford married William Cavendish and Bolton Abbey Estate thereafter belonged to the Dukes of Devonshire, until a trust was set up by the 11th Duke of Devonshire turning it over to the Chatsworth Settlement Trustees to steward.

Its a lovely scenic road, but don't expect to set a fast pace - its gravelly in parts and very narrow. Any other road traffic (particularly tourists unfamiliar with passing places and horses) mean regular stops to climb into the verge

National Trusts most visited site in England.
