I caught the train to Grindleford and cycled down to Hassop Station, just near Bakewell, before cycling the length of the Monsal trail. I then cycled to Buxton via Harpur Hill quarry and did a loop over to Hathersage via Abney Gliding club. I stayed at the North Lees Campsite near Hathersage in a camping pod https://www.peakdistrict.gov.uk/visiting/things-to-do/camping/camping-northlees On day 2 I rode up to Stannage Edge and Stannage Pole, dropped down to Redmires Reservoir and into Ecclesall Woods.
