ライムハンドリーでののおすすめツーリングルート

Great steady ride for two old gentlemen? in their 70s

Great pub with large beer garden at the back. Next to the old Higher Poynton railway station on the Middlewood Way. Also next to a cafe (for ice creams etc) and the Macclesfield Canal.

Have to agree with others... plenty to see especially at the weekend & the Navigation pub is good for food & drink...

Such a challenging climb in a road bike, you soon run out of gears on a 11-32t rear cassette, but the views at the top make it worth your while & then hood onto your hats on the descent down towards Fernlee reservoir & the Goyt Valley

To reach Pym Chair it's a steep climb from either Lamaload Reservoir or Errwood Reservoir. Once at the top, you're rewarded with glorious views into the Goyt Valley and towards Cats Tor.

A small, bustling town on the edge of the Peak District, with numerous independent cafés, shops and pubs. During the Industrial Revolution, Bollington was a centre for cotton mills, quarries and coal mines. Many of the historic mills are still standing, now mostly converted to apartments.

Winnats Pass is a tough climb out of Castleton through a dramatic limestone cleft. It starts off relatively gently, but gets steeper as you near the top. The road can get busy with traffic, so take care when going down.

great spot to 'pull over'

When the Derwent reservoir is full, the water flows out through the 'plugholes' at the southern end. A mesmerising spectacle when there's a lot of water flowing and can be enhanced by a great sunrise.

Great cafe for a stop if you're cycling down the canal. A small amount of outside seating, but it's nice to take away and sit on the canalside.

Middlewood Way is an 11-mile (16-km) traffic-free greenway linking Macclesfield and Marple. This mostly flat route winds through fields and small towns like Bollington. While not as scenic as trails like Tissington, it’s still a charming ride. Shared with walkers and horse riders, some sections require caution and slower speeds due to limited space. In wet weather expect muddy conditions, with a slick surface that can leave you messy. In dry weather, the hardpack path offers a smooth and enjoyable ride.

One of the best places in the area to observe a sunset

Dig deep into energy pockets 😆

Announcement post of what’s coming. You have to dig deep to finish the climb of average 15% slope 🤪

Climb from Kettleshulme

Brilliant areas Great cafe

The Errwood Circular route offers panoramic views during the 7.2 km walk, which should take around 2 hours. It's advised to wear walking shoes or boots, especially after rain, as the narrow path on the far side can get muddy.

A good spot to watch the gorge
