Additional Event Information
Setting out on the Manifold Trail this approx 12 mile long route begins riverside, crossing numerous bridges along the way. Leaving the trail to head cross country, the route ascends steeply passing limestone tors. Opening up to expansive grassland which runs uphill there are fabulous canter opportunities. Pausing for a breather at the top, the views are stunning and as the route continues, every corner turned opens up a new vista. Descending on country lanes, the route passes the ruins of Throwley Hall before ascending once more. A further grassland section offers up more cantering, before the route takes to country lanes passing through pretty villages to conclude.
Worth noting:
Connection to and from the car park is via approximately 500 yds along a roadside access path, separated from the road by a verge. It�s likely that HGVs will be passing as well as other traffic.
The Manifold Trail is multi-user and as such it is likely that cyclists and walkers with dogs or buggies may be encountered.
The route includes several bridge crossings, some of which are wooden and may be slippery when wet.
Livestock will be encountered both on and alongside the route. This may include pigs, poultry, cows and sheep.
Some roadwork is included, mainly on small country lanes, but there is a direct crossing of an A road.
Parking is chargeable at �7 for horse transports for all day.
