Plank Gate, Trans Pennine Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

A little bit of wilderness close to the city!

This section of the Trans Pennine Trail is a wide, groomed, gravel path through the woodland linking Wortley to Oughtibridge. It's undulating but there aren't any very steep climbs.

It's less than 6 miles (10 km) out of Sheffield city centre but it feels like you could be in the middle of nowhere, even though the busy A6102 runs just to the west of it.

Wortley Hall Grounds Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This lovely, wide gravel track through the old grounds of Wortley Hall is part of the Trans Pennine Trail and Timberland Trail. It's one of the best bits of gravel in Barnsley.

Good stretch of surfaced cycle path that runs alongside Chapeltown Park. It links up to the Transpennine Trail and on to Meadowhall and the Five Weirs path into Sheffield

North Bank of the Porter Brook, wide but reasonably natural, fun & pretty cycleway alongside the water. Gradual downhill all the way to Endcliffe Park & Hunter's Bar. Makes a great link with The Porter Brook Trail all the way up to Ringinglow & Lady Cannings

Carr Bridge singletrack

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This track leads you from Forge Dam into the spectacular countryside on the outskirts of Sheffield, heading towards the Peak District. You can link to lots of other gravel trails nearby. It’s a great way of linking Endcliffe Park to the Peaks amid pretty countryside.

View of Sheffield from Roper Hill

Highlight • Climb

Great view point of Sheffield and South Yorkshire on nicely country roads which are not too busy and are well surfaced. Climbing up Roper Hill gives a particularly good view and it is also a good little climb too.

Wyming Brook Drive

Lovely gentle climb from Rivelin Valley up to Redmires. The wide, easy-going track meanders through the forest up the valley.
