This year, the Dark Peak Mountain Bike Challenge is back… but we're making some exciting changes so we'll be able to offer you three fantastic off-road rides!
Our three personal challenges get progressively harder, from a taster of the trails in the Dark Peak to a full on assault of all the best the area has to offer for a truly memorable (exhausting & exhilarating) day of riding.
All 3 routes will start and finish at Edale Village Hall.
Adventure Route: (approx 14 miles) A great introduction to the Dark Peaks, It may not be very long ride, but it'll still provide you with some technical rocky trails, big hills and wonderful views.
Advanced Route: (approx 23 miles) This route is suited to more experienced riders wanting to ride some of the more technical trails, taking in some of the Dark Peak classics. Expect big hills with loose rocks.
Extreme Route: (approx 34 miles) For very fit and competent riders only, this route peels off from our advanced route to include more tough climbs and fast technical descents and great views of Ladybower reservoir. The distance may not sound very far, but the hills and technical terrain will provide a very tough challenge. Conquer this and you’ll have earned ‘Elite’ status.
Such an exciting event is sure to fill up fast, so register now to make sure you don’t miss out!
