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

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

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.

Classic factory blast route that takes you from Holly lane down to the woods where there are an abundance of downhill trails.

Longwalls Lane Rocky Descent

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

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.
