Peak District Mountain Biking

Peak District Mountain Biking – Dark Peak Trails is the fully updated second edition of the guide that riders have been raving about for years. The original was hailed as “far and away the best Peak guide we’ve come across”, and this new version takes things even further.

Packed with 26 of the finest mountain bike routes in the Dark Peak — from punchy 11.5km blasts to epic 105km days out — this guide has something for every rider. All the routes have been re‑ridden, rechecked and refreshed to give you the most accurate, up‑to‑date info on one of the UK’s most iconic riding areas.

As with all Vertebrate MTB guides, you get crystal‑clear Ordnance Survey 1:50,000 mapping, easy‑to‑follow directions, distance and timing details, difficulty gradings, local tips and the all‑important refreshment stops. Stunning action photography brings the gritstone, moorland and big‑sky landscapes to life.

Written by a local rider who knows every climb, descent and sneaky line, the book also includes a brilliant Bonus Section with Top Ten Climbs, Downhills and Singletracks, Sheffield City Links, and a detailed appendix for planning your perfect day out.

If you want the definitive guide to riding the Dark Peak, this is the one to stick in your pack.
