カージントンウォーターのおすすめライド

It's smooth gravel - road bikes are fine, but there is a roady way around too if you prefer. It's just a busy road so I was very happy to avoid it🥲

Better to stay at the visitor’s centre.

Very scenic and a good gravel ride 8 miles round trip.

I always seem to hit this climb when I've already got plenty of miles in my legs! So it's always a challenge but a measured pace is key. Road surface is good and there's enough room for cars to get past you and not be breathing down your neck. 😉

A decent longish climb up through Brassington to Longcliffe. Pretty steep through the village then keeps on giving as you leave!

A long climb with some steeper sections. It's a busy road so go early or out of rush hour, especially if you want to avoid the quarry lorries

Great cafe with a large menu, good coffee & good service. Toilets clean & accessible. Also a great base for accessing the HIgh Peak trail if you’re into off roading

Lovely afternoon sunshine at Carsington Water. The Waterside Cafe doing a great job with a good variety of snacks, including veggie and vegan options - and there was enough food left for a late lunch on a busy Sunday!
