The Monsal Trail tunnels offer one of the most spectacular leisure routes in Britain for cycling, walking and horse riding.
It is the first time the public have been able to go through the tunnels since the former Midland Railway Line closed in 1968.
Following work by the Peak District National Park Authority – using £2.25 million funding from the department of transport – the tunnels have been repaired, resurfaced and lit to form an extension to the existing Monsal Trail.
The eight & half miles follows the river Wye & takes you through several newly opened lit tunnels, between magnificent steep gorges, surrounding limestone hills & across the spectacular Monsal Dale viaduct making this an exceptional cycling experience
With The Monsal Trail only a short walk down the Pennine Bridleway from the site it really is a must to do whilst staying with us.
Fancy hiring a bike?
Now hiring out, electric bikes, child seats, tagalongs and trailers- they have something for everyone.
