Get Directions

1.62 km

Ashopton Viaduct

Highlight • Bridge

Beautiful area of outstanding beauty, ideal for walking or perfect for a bike ride.

Tip by

7.22 km

Fast when dry singletrack through the woods with glimpses of the reservoir on your right hand-side that opens up into a loose rocky descent, great fun! Good confidence on the bike required because it can get quite techy in places.

Tip by

9.77 km

Derwent Reservoir and Dam

Highlight • Lake

Beautifully situated reservoir with two barrages and architecturally impressive dams. A path (for pedestrians and bikes) cycle path leads around the lake.

Tip by

10.4 km

Upper Derwent Visitor Centre and Café

Highlight • Rest Area

This place is open every day, all year round. We stopped for an ice lolly on a beautiful sunny day and admired the reservoir and ducks.

Paved Climb from Derwent Reservoir

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Awesome paved climb up from Derwent Reservoir leading up to a lovely shelter that has a bench and little illustrated tiles within. Great climb, quite challenging to complete without a final push at the end before the gate.

Stream crossing at Ladybower Reservoir

Highlight • River

On a hot sunny day, ideal spot to stop and have a paddle, or like I did, chuck water down your neck to cool you down!

Whinstone Lee Tor Viewpoint Climb

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Lovely steady climb up to Whinstone Lee Tor viewpoint. A favourite trail of mine purely for the views down the hillside and great single track.

View of Ladybower Reservoir from Whinstone Lee Tor

Highlight • Viewpoint

At the top of the final climb, and beginning of the final descent down to the pub. Here you'll find an amazing view point, ideal location to stop and grab …
