Manifold Track

This 9 mile tarmac track runs along the line of a disused railway from Hulme End, near Hartington in the north to Waterhouses on the A523 Leek to Ashbourne road in the south. It provides a good level surface for people in wheelchairs, families with pushchairs and for cyclists. However the section from Swainsley to Wetton Mill is used by traffic (single track) and contains a tunnel 100m long at Swainsley; this is illuminated but still quite dark - there are small passing places where pedestrians can avoid vehicles but it would not be recommended for people in wheelchairs or with pushchairs.

There are a number of car parks giving access to the Manifold Track.
