Toad Lane Bridleway Underpass (A38)

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The Toad Lane track up from the Derby road under the A38, and up to Moor Lane.

There are some large embedded rocks on the first part which might be difficult for anything other than chunky MTB wheels, good luck!

Sustrans Millennium Milepost – Derwent Valley Mills

Highlight • Monument

Nice little milepost featured along with a lovely bike/footpath through the park. Nice to be away from the traffic but do need to watch out for straying pedestrians and their dogs.
