Prepare for a difficult mountain biking adventure on the Bakewell to Beeley Hill & Birchover loop, a challenging 21.2-mile (34.1 km) route with 2525 feet (770 metres) of elevation gain, typically taking around 3 hours. You will navigate varied terrain, from limestone singletrack and rocky byways to woodland sections and moorland bridleways. Enjoy expansive vistas over the Peak District and Chatsworth Estate from Beeley Moor, and catch glimpses of iconic landmarks like Haddon Hall and Chatsworth House nestled in the valleys.
This trail is rated as hard and demands good fitness and advanced riding skills; some sections are so challenging you might need to push your bike. It is recommended for confident riders who have experience on varied off-road trails. Be aware that the route can get quite muddy in places, requiring caution for slippery wet roots and limestone.
Known as one of the most popular mountain biking trails in the Over Haddon and Bakewell areas, this loop stands out for its combination of challenging terrain, substantial elevation changes, and diverse scenery. You will experience the White Peak's distinct limestone features alongside open moorlands, all while passing traditional dry stone walls and historical lead mining remnants that add to the distinctive backdrop.
