The star disc is a wonderful place to visit, at time I did this the steps up to viewing platform were not accessible

The car park is free for National Trust members. I love climbing but I don't like heights....confusing I know! I really enjoyed this short climb but I found myself on a small scramble which got my blood pumping a little!

Car park isn’t free but costs £6.60 for the day or £4 for 4 hours

Heights of Abraham great views

This prominent rocky outcrop is an important crag in the world of climbing, and attracts rock climbers who appreciate a challenging route. It juts out from the hillside and forms a beautiful view of the valley below.

19th century pleasure ground which exploited the dramatic qualities of the Derwent valley. Peter Arkwright of Willersley Castle enclosed the grounds c 1860 and constructed pedestrian paths from a new entrance on the south side approached from the bridge to Matlock Bath railway station. The entrance from Starkholmes Road was retained and could be used by carriages. A pathway was formed through Fern Cave (scheduled ancient monument) and another on a narrow ledge along part of the cliff face. In 1879 the grounds were leased to the Matlock and High Tor Recreation Grounds Company Ltd and Milner of London was retained to supervise landscaping. Arkwright's Grand Walk, also used by carriages, was created, leading south to the summit from a gateway in Pig Tree Lane, now Pic Tor Lane. A refreshment room was erected near the summit, tennis and quoit or skittle grounds were constructed close to a modified southern entrance and additional paths put in with a broad flight of steps.

The Haw Lees (as the area was then called) was originally two fields on the east bank of the River Derwent lying between Matlock Bridge and Matlock Green through which ran a long established footpath linking the two settlements. This strip of land was acquired by Matlock Urban District Council from Henry Knowles in 1898 and the 'Broadwalk' was formed along the route of this riverside footpath. In 1908 the remainder of the two fields, (one of which was still in use as Matlock's football pitch) was purchased from Mr Perry of Manchester for £3,750. Local architect John Nuttall provided a design for the park, and Hall Leys Park was officially opened on 23 June 1911 to celebrate the Coronation of King George V. Derbyshire Dales District Council's Hall Leys Park in Matlock is officially one of the best UK parks. The Matlock park was again recognised as one of the country's best green spaces this year with an 11th consecutive Green Flag Award in July 2018.

Mountain bikes for sure and maybe the occasional gravel bike will be found atop the rocks, but likely not touring bikes. Just enjoy the view from the nice smooth gravel former railway track below.
