Short and sweet

It's short, and sweet and free. Not worth a long journey to visit, unless you link in to other local tracks.

What do you like?

Free, usually a good surface

What could be improved?

Not much variety. No facilities (though is a car park), but not big enough to warrant them.

Would you recommend?

yes

Great Fun to be had in the peaks

started riding the peaks as my mate moved up there and i now use his place as a rather comfortable base! only done a few rides here however. the 2 best ones I have done so far are mam tor/rushupedge and the other is ladybower/derwent reservoirs. both had plenty of fast bits, plenty of technical descents and technical climbs (pushed my bike up alot) but still every time i ride there i am walking away grinning. plan to do edale soon, ive walked up jacobs ladder before and said to my mate when i did that i wished i had a bike on me at the time to send it! cant wait to keep exploring up here. i cant see me ever getting bored.

What do you like?

seemingly endless routes in a huge area bit of riding for all abilities amazing scenery fun!

What could be improved?

not having time to try all the different route options!

Would you recommend?

Inner city fun...but can you tell your in a city?

Went with a friend and my 8 year old son. We had a quick couple of loops and a session on the duel slalom. Just needs a pump track next to the slalom to add to the great facility on offer.

What do you like?

Great uphill. Blue trail plus red options. Easily accessible. Excellent duel slalom. Walkers and cyclist managed well with rocks at crossover.

What could be improved?

Bit of glass here and there but easily avoidable.

Would you recommend?

*Yes*

Parkwood Springs Sheffield.

Don't be confused by the blue/red grade status of the trail. It's fun for riders off all levels all that happens is the challenges change. It can be ridden on any sort of mountain bike and I take a different bike depending on what I want to do.

What do you like?

Good trail variety. Great for beginners and kids to practice their basics in a safe environment for advanced riders great for perfecting your style and flare before you try it on more treacherous features. I love racing my friends down the dual slalom.

What could be improved?

Would be nice if there was a shop or some facilities but seeing as it's free to ride I can't complain.

Would you recommend?

*Yes*

Simply The Best

My intro' to M'biking was in the Peak District around 25 years ago. I've been to Spain, France, Wales and Scotland and for all round funthe Peak District is the best. Some of the tracks need to be ridden with confidence. I'm looking forward to trying the rocky trails on my new e-bike.

What do you like?

Exciting fun, good drainage on most tracks. Something for everyone. Good facilities in the Peak District villages are never too far away.

What could be improved?

Derbyshire council trying to create access for all.

Would you recommend?

*Yes*
