The Longdendale Trail

The Longdendale Trail is an English long-distance trail that runs a distance of approximately 6.5 miles (10.4km) from Hadfield, Derbyshire to Woodhead Tunnel.

The route follows the alignment of the former Woodhead railway line which used to run between Manchester and Sheffield (and closed east of Hadfield in 1981). It has shallow gradients and a smooth surface that makes it popular with families and cyclists.

The Longdendale Trail forms part of the longer Trans Pennine Trail that runs from coast to coast across the UK (Liverpool to Hull).
