Melbourne and the Cloud Trail

Melbourne is a town in Derbyshire, England. The town is home to a wide range of independent shops, cafes, and historic buildings, including a Norman parish church dating back to the 12th century. Melbourne Hall, a magnificent stately home, is also a popular attraction, with its beautiful gardens and stunning architecture.
The town is known for its annual Melbourne Festival, which celebrates the many talents of local artists and performers.
A flat, mostly traffic-free route walking and cycling route runs from Derby city centre to Worthington along canal paths and a former railway, now known as the Cloud Trail.

Enjoyed this. I used to live in Weston-on-trent and remember when the rail track was still there. Great to see the cycle track across the trent and along the canal.

Glad you liked it. I enjoyed walking there.

So sad that this isn't a nice cycle ride in Melbourne Australia. It does look a lovely ride.

I'd bet there are some great bike rides in Melbourne, Australia as well - maybe one day I'll get to see them (never been there yet)!
