Hassop Station Bakewell Derbyshire

This is a nice steady ride for ladies with a bit of cycling experience/fitness under their belt, only because it's approximately 16 miles, and just short of 20 miles if we add the section from Hassop Station to Coombs Road and back. The Monsal Trail is traffic free and easy going and travels through some stunning scenery. At this time of day, we should have the trail more or less to ourselves as we travel west from Hassop Station through the tunnels to Blackwell Mill. We'll stop for a drink and natter here before retracing our route back to Hassop Station. It's definitely easier on the way back from here! There's a chillier feel in the air now so it's a good idea to wear layers and even gloves if you are nesh like me! A waterproof also wouldn't go a miss. Don't forget your helmet if you have one, a drink and perhaps a small scooby snack and a bit of change forĀ a coffee. Hope to see you soon.
