Chesterfield to Sheffield

Description

This is a nice route that follows the Trans Pennine Trail from Chesterfield to Sheffield via the Rother Valley.
The route starts by the Chesterfield Canal and follows it for a few miles before a spell along a dismantled railway. The route finishes in the centre of Sheffield near the train station but apart from the finish is mainly off road.
Route highlights include the fine Renishaw Hall stately home at Eckington and shortly after the lovely Rother Valley Country Park with its expansive lake.
