Fast Descent Bridleway, Peak District National Park

Highlight • Trail

Super fun and fast descent, equally as good (not as fast) to climb. Mega views, nice wide bridleway.

Hope Cross

Highlight • Monument

Hope Cross lies at the crossroads of ancient packhorse routes through the Peak District, ands it's surrounded by beautiful views down into the Valley. You'll find it's a lovely wide open track with spectacular views.

The Beast Upper Descent

Highlight (Segment) • MTB Park

A challenging descent. It is fairly steep but it's the rocks that will get you. Line choice is vital as taking the wrong one will likely end in an OTB …

Tip by

11.3 km

Western Shore Road, Ladybower Reservoir

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

A pretty easy way to end a bunch of rides round these parts. Brings you out nicely at the reservoir crossing to nip back to the Ladybower Inn for some much needed sustenance!
