Lady Canning's Plantation Mountain Bike Trails

Lady Canning's Plantation Mountain Bike Trails are in Sheffield, on the edge of Houndkirk Moor close to the Peak National park 20 minutes from Sheffield centre. Lady Cannings has two blue mountain bike trails. 

This was the first MTB trail in England where crowdfunding had been used to help drive the initial investment needed. Funding was also significantly supplemented by GO Outdoors. Lady Cannings is managed by Ride Sheffield who also manages Parkwoods Springs, Greno Woods, and Bolehills BMX.

Blue Steel

• This trail is 1.4km long. It's flowy, with rollers and bumps throughout. You can pretty much ride it with minimal pedalling.

Cooking on Gas

• Simply ride to the top of the plantation and, where you’d normally turn right on the forestry road, turn left for a slice of perfectly sculpted track. Divided into four sections, it has a distinct character aall its own, markedly different to Blue Steel. Once again blue in grade, more of a flow trail, it still incorporates some big features, so there’s fun for everyone. It is 1.6km in length.

• As well as the Lady Cannings Facebook page you can join the Ride Sheffield Facebook group.
