Overview
The Tissington Trail, the site of a former railway line from Ashbourne to Buxton, this race runs along a 13 mile route from Parsley Hay to Ashbourne. This popular and award winning race sells out in advance so an early entry is advised. The trail is traffic free and the slight downhill gradient promises both stunning views and PB potential. Takes place on both Saturday and Sunday, choose between one or both!
