Starting point




South Yorkshire
S17 3LR

This is a lovely route from South Sheffield out to the edge of the Peak District. The loop involves some climbing, but it's all very doable and there some beautiful views with a chance of seeing some deer at the top so it's well worth the effort!

We begin with a long, steady climb from Dore Station, through Totley and up to Owler Bar, before getting on Owler Bar Road and climbing further towards Longshaw and then dropping down to Fox House. We then have a gorgeous descent back to our starting point via Whirlow.

BRING LIGHTS! The sun may be setting by the time get back.

Please bring a drink with you as there is no cafe stop on this ride. The nice people at Rajdhani Indian Restaurant at Dore station will let you use their toilets if you ask nicely. :-)

Please ensure your bike is in good working order and bring a spare inner tube, multi-tool/spanner and a pump with you. Helmets are advised but not compulsory.

Please note – these roads often have fast moving traffic and cars will overtake us quickly. Please ensure you are comfortable riding on fast roads before signing up.
