Longdendale Trail
Description
This splendid cycling and walking trail follows a disused railway line through the Longdendale in the
Peak District National Park
. The path starts in Hadfield and runs alongside a series of beautiful reservoirs including
Bottoms Reservoir
,
Torside Reservoir
,
Woodhead Reservoir
and Rhodeswood Reservoir before finishing at Salter's Brook. It runs for just over 8 miles on a gradually ascending path which is ideal for both cyclists and walkers. There's also fine views of the lovely rolling hills and countryside for the duration of the route. It's easy to access with a train station and public car park right next to the start point at the western end in Hadfield.
