Explore the Skegby Railway Loop
Location: Ashfield, England
Discover the Ashfield countryside on this gentle 7.6 km loop, starting from Skegby. This route masterfully links three disused railway lines – the Skegby Trail, the Teversal Trail, and a section towards Frackley – offering a remarkably flat and almost entirely paved surface. It's connected by a short stretch of Batley Lane at the northern end, providing a seamless and easy-to-navigate path.
The consistent, flat terrain makes this an excellent choice for a convenient and accessible training run, ideal for maintaining your pace over a comfortable distance. While you won't encounter significant elevation or technical sections, the route provides a pleasant escape into the area's green spaces, suitable for runners looking for a consistent surface and a peaceful outing.
