Atlow Hills

Starting from Carsington main Visitor Centre car park this ride is approx 12 miles and takes in green lanes, country lanes and some of the Carsington circular route. Hills is the name of the game with undulations the whole way round. The views from the top of Atlow down onto the reservoir and around the surrounding countryside are breathtaking. If all riders are happy to do so this route offers some canter opportunities.

On the Carsington section there may be cyclists and walkers with dogs.
