Peaks: Closed for cars, open for bikes

Posted on 20 July 20162 April 2021 by Rob Ainsley

I’m researching cycling routes in the Derbyshire Peaks with Mark. His local knowledge proved invaluable – ‘closed roads’ (like the one on Mam Tor, which we didn’t visit today) that are actually open to cyclists (hence car-free) for instance. And pubs, also open to cyclists…

Lush, ferny Goyt valley
Monsal Head, viaduct and all
The B6521, permanently ‘closed’ by landslips, but cyclable
The hidden gem of the Upper Dove Valley, with its micro-Dolomites
More of the Dove Valley
