This is another `must' for your stay. Would definite recommend a trip to Monsal Head. Not only for the breath taking views of the Monsal Head Viaduct below as it crosses the River Wye, but a well earn't drink or meal at the Stable Bar at Monsal Head after a walk or cycle ride along the Monsal Trail or a walk down into the valley which is equally as breath taking. The Monsal Trail is a traffic free route for walkers, cyclists, horse riders and wheelchair users through some of the Peak District's most spectacular limestone dales. The trail runs along the former Midland Railway line for 8.5 miles between Blackwell Mill, in Chee Dale and Coombs Road, at Bakewell. Most of the route was opened to the public in 1981 but four former railway tunnels had to remain closed due to safety reasons, with public footpaths taking people around them. From 25 May 2011 the four railway tunnels - Headstone Tunnel, Cressbrook Tunnel, Litton Tunnel, Chee Tor Tunnel – will also open for trail users. Each tunnel is about 400 metres long and will be lit during normal daylight hours. Two shorter tunnels - Chee Tor No.2 and Rusher Cutting – already formed part of the Monsal Trail. The public can now experience the full length of the former railway route at their own pace and see breathtaking views at places like Water-cum-Jolly Dale that have remained hidden since the railway closed in 1968. Other former railway lines now open to the public as traffic-free trails can be found at the High Peak Trail and Tissington Trail, with bike hire centres also servicing these routes. The Monsal Trail tunnels offer one of the most spectacular leisure routes in Britain for cycling, walking and horse riding. Only recently, It is the first time the public have been able to go through the tunnels since the former Midland Railway Line closed in 1968. Following work by the Peak District National Park Authority – using £2.25 million funding from the Department of Transport – the tunnels have been repaired, resurfaced and lit to form an extension to the existing Monsal Trail. Four of the longer tunnels are lit during daylight hours, dawn to dusk, to make them safe to use.

Commanding superb views over Monsal Dale, a valley in an area of Derbyshire’s Peak District known as the White Peak, the Monsal Head Hotel offers guests good food, with well priced seasonal menus, real ales from local micro breweries, a large outdoor seating area, and 7 en-suite bedrooms. The Hotel and Coaching Inn are in one of the most popular beauty spots in Derbyshire, with views over the valley and its famous viaduct, and a short distance from Chatsworth Estate, Ashford in the Water, Bakewell, Buxton and Matlock.
