The
Peak District has a number of disused railway trails, now used
by walkers and cyclists alike. With the closure of the Cromford
and High Peak Railway, the Ashbourne to Parsley Hay line and
the Monsal Dale Line, the opportunity arose for the National
Park Authority to convert these to scenic walkways with cycle
hire on the first two lines. They are now known as the High Peak
Trail, the Tissington Trail and the Monsal Trail respectively.
Here, miles of traffic free countryside can be enjoyed, most
of it reasonablylevel for cycling.
