Скачать или смотреть A Cycle ride from Hulme End to Waterhouses on the Manifold Trail, Staffs

We started out at Hulme End where you'll find the Tea Junction near the visitor centre, and there is also a cafe at Wetton Mill. The route is of the old Manifold Valley Light Railway which operated for passengers and goods from 1904 until 1934. Only a few years later, in 1937, the route was re-opened in its current format – a walking/cycling path. We cycled through the valleys of the Hamps and Manifold rivers, via Ecton. There is a 2 mile section of road from Wetton Mill to the 100m long Swainsley Tunnel. We also saw the imposing Thor's Cave along the trail.

At the end of the bike ride at Waterhouses there is the Ye Olde Crown Inn, or the Red Lion Inn a mile up the road.

The bike ride is approximately 8 1/2 miles long.
