Hagg Farm Descent

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Hagg farm descent is a short, fast, naturally bermed, rocky blast. Watch out for a couple of gates and be prepared for a pinch flat if not tubeless. Great fun 😁

Hope Cross lies at the crossroads of ancient packhorse routes through the Peak District, ands it's surrounded by beautiful views down into the Valley. You'll find it's a lovely wide open track with spectacular views.

Super fun and fast descent, equally as good (not as fast) to climb. Mega views, nice wide bridleway.

One of my favourite climbs in the Hope. Techy in places, steady incline, slippy when wet, dreamy when dry!
