Discover the charm of Hulme End, a gateway to the Peak District's scenic Manifold Way for car-free adventures
Nestled beautifully on the Derbyshire and Staffordshire border, Hulme End is a charming village that invites you to explore the stunning Peak District without the need for a car. Once a bustling railway terminus, its old station now welcomes visitors as an engaging Visitor Centre, complete with a National Park bike hire facility.
From here, the accessible, traffic-free Manifold Way unfurls, an 8-mile trail along the former railway line. Perfect for a leisurely walk or cycle, this scenic route follows the meandering River Manifold through a landscape of rolling limestone hills and ancient dry-stone walls. Pause at the riverside Manifold Inn or venture further to the historic Wetton Mill and the dramatic Thor’s Cave, all easily reached on foot or by bike.
