Burbage Moor Hill Climb

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great road up to the top of Burbage and Stanage. Amazing views over the hope valley and up to Stanage edge. It's also a reliably brilliant spot for a sunset watching.

Burbage Moor Climb from Hathersage

Highlight (Segment) • Natural

The Dale from Hathersage at about 178m up to Burbage Moor at 432m opposite Higger Tor is a long and fairly tough climb. It's great though, not bust and the cars aren't fast anyway. Amazing views if you have the energy to look when you get to the top.
In descent the corners are sharp and the surface isn't the best so it's a bit juddery.

Leadmill to Abney Climb

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

There are a few different routes to make your way upto Abney but this for me is one of the best. It's hilly all the way up but plateauxs a few times before climbing up again, it's generally always very quiet and offers wonderful views over Hope Valley as you climb. There are a few trails leading off the road that are great if you are on a gravel bike or similar too.
