Starting at Maytham Bridge we will cycle along the Thornhill Trail to Ladybower.
We will then peddle on to loop around Derwent & Howden dams.
We’ll stop off at Fairholmes for a cuppa and we can take a picnic to eat at Slippery Stones - Weather willing.

Lovely ride along the Thornhill Trail and a loop around Ladybower, Derwent & Howden reservoirs.

Trails, quiet lanes and gravel paths.

We’ll stop off at Fairholmes on the way round for a cuppa and at the Yorkshire Bridge on the way back for a late lunch. If it’s a sunny day we could opt for a picnic at Slippery Stones instead. We can decide nearer the time.

Please bring the usual items to fix a puncture and you may wish to have some cash for the Fairholmes stop or ice cream van.
