Great ride up through the farmers field and then the farm. Be sure to close the gates behind you and say hi to the animals!

Viewpoint on Longwalls Lane

Highlight • Viewpoint

Nice little viewpoint on Longwalls Lane across farmland.

Tip by

This is really great loose rocky descent down to Ashover Road named Longwalls Lane.

Enjoy some mega big rocky features and a few drops, so prepare to have fun!

It certainly makes for a challenging technical climb too.

Fun climb up to Lumb Lane from the road. Nice little ride through a ford, everyone loves a good ford.

The Chevin Descent to Milford

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This is a really fun and fast blast with some great rocky features. Best on a mountain bike, but can also be fun on a gravel bike too, if you're happy to take it a bit steadier!

Midshires Way Bridleway – Belper

Really great bit of bridleway across the top of Belper. This is a good, really long track with some techy features, for off-road bikes only.
