About the route
Starting point
We will meet by the main entrance of Elvaston Castle car park. Please note there is a charge to park. Toilets are available near the meeting point.
Leaving Elvaston Castle we will ride along mostly flat and quiet lanes through local villages.
We will then head a short distance along the Cloud Trail and call at Melbourne Tea Rooms. Return to Elvaston Castle will be via the canal towpath and canal path through Alvaston Park. The route is most suited to hybrid bikes.
This route is a great confidence builder if you are returning to cycling - we will go at the pace of the slowest rider so don't worry about being dropped!
Please wear a helmet and make sure your bike is roadworthy. It is advisable to bring a drink, a puncture repair kit/spare inner tube and pump just in case.
