Additional Event Information
Approximately 8.5 miles starting from Hartington Station this very scenic route includes sections of the Tissington Trail before moving onto the tracks and country lanes around Biggin and Hartington. The highlight is a lovely bridleway up Biggin Dale which offers a good canter stretch if all riders are happy to do so. There is fabulous scenery to enjoy throughout the route. With good verges on the trails there are also some opportunities to canter here where pedestrian and cycle traffic permits.
