How do people rate this trail? we did it from Parsley hey to Tissington a few days ago but tomorrow we are doing the full route including the High peak trail.

As someone just getting back into MTBing its great because its more or less flat all the way so not to much uphill pain :wink: .

    I descended on a road bike with 23mm tyres from near Monyash to Ashbourne and found the track excellent. This distance is around 15 miles and is almost continuous descent. Some walkers were sometimes on the track. Near Ashbourtne there was a railway sign saying 1 in 53 slope I think. Nice views also.
