Starting point




South Yorkshire
S10 3FQ

The route takes us up the Porter Valley to the edge of the Peak District National Park where there are panoramic views of Sheffield. We will then ride to Mayfield Park for a café stop and to see the Alpacas. The return journey will take us past Whirlow Farm and back down Porter Valley to Endcliffe Park.

The first third of this ride is uphill, which steepens onto a tarmac lane as we reach the edge of the Peak District some 800 feet above where we started. There is no problem getting off to walk the steeper sections. No one will be left behind.

The route is a mix of off-road tracks, traffic-free or quiet roads. In places some of the tracks are a little rough, loose and bumpy and so the route is best suited for hybrid or mountain bikes.

Meet at the café in Endcliffe Park S11 7AB (please note that this postcode is not precise and conflicts with S10 3FQ which is also wrong and automatically generated from the map start point). Alternatively, the precise location can be found using the What3Words grid - https://w3w.co/lake.warm.enjoyable This is best viewed on the satellite map base.

On-street parking is normally available on Rustlings Road or Oakbrook Road (alongside the park).

There will be a café stop at Mayfield Park and opportunities to take photos should you wish.

We recommend that you wear a helmet and bring a spare inner tube. You may also wish to bring money for the café stop.

We never leave anyone behind
