lucky me it was open and cost 3 pound to go in..great views at the top

Ruins of a small Cistercian abbey in a dramatic valley with rocky limestone outcrops.

Park free in the RSPB Carpark

Great views and an amazing folly on the Wentworth Estate

Hiking Path goes around the grounds and into the fields. Small car park is available but can get boggy in adverse weather.

First words? "wow". This thing makes you feel tiny! It's like a little reward for people who appreciate these small things!

Cyclable route across the viaduct for great views!

Mm

It's a great view and well worth stopping for a look over the edge. It's quite a long way down though!

I approached this from the woods east of the tower, it was abit of a hike a bike but it was very fun. We then got a nice decent off the hill. If you fancy a lil adventure I would try this.

Great place to stop and eat a sandwhich. You have to pay to get inside, but there is a large field round the back where you can see pretty much everything.

TPT route from Mexborough pastures, or from Sprotbrough. great views especially now with the autumn colours

You don't have to carry bike over the water the water gor the first one you can come off earlier through where a fence is brocken and follow the worn track around and down a hill and it brings you out at the other side of the first kissing gate if you follow the road at the second kissing gate and up a path on the right it will bring you out on to field which you can follow along the side of which in turn bring you to the quarry top but it is worth the rock climb to continue the don gorge track.

he magnificent Conisbrough viaduct is impossible to overlook with its 21 arches, 150 foot lattice iron girder span over the river, and 1,527 feet in length. Opened in 1909, it was part of a connection between the Hull & Barnsley Railway and those of the Great Northern and Great Eastern. It consists of more than 15 million bricks, and features some beautiful decorative brickwork. It is so vast that an aerial ropeway was built to carry men and materials across the valley during its construction

Plenty of trails around this viaduct, i really recommend the don gorge!

Section of the TransPennine Trail on the old railway line viaduct over the river Don. Great views across to Conisbrough Castle. Don’t look over the edge if you’re scared of heights though - it’s a long way down!

You'll have to leave your bike at the gate (or hoik it over) to take a closer look at Hoober Stand, but it's such a strange building that it's worth the effort. The tower stands 30-metres-high on a ridge in hoober, close to the estate of Wentworth. The folly was commissioned by the Whig aristocrat Thomas Watson-Wentworth, Earl of Malton (later the 1st Marquess of Rockingham) and designed by Henry Flitcroft to commemorate the quashing of the 1745 Jacobite rebellion. There's a nice plaque above the door explaining it's origins.

Ok so on the other side of the don, is a lovely cycle way with beautiful paths and gravel. so if you want a leisurely ride take that. This is also technically a walking route.... there are 2 gates that you cant get your bike through, first time you can go near the water and carry your bike round, and the second time you have to carry your bike up a huge pile of boulders and then down again. Buuuuuuuut this was alot of fun, there are some down hill MTB trails, fallen bridges and other ruins. getting out at the otherside was a PAIN, the paths werent where komoot said they where. All in all, would do again.

A bit of a hidden gem. The ruins of a Cistercian Monastery founded in 1147. There are some extensive woods nearby and you can do some fab walking loops from here. There is parking here too.

Enjoy the view, curse the headwind
