The Calder Divide Trail Challenge is a bike event that traces the watershed of the River Calder in West Yorkshire. 80% of the route is off-road and is suitable for either a gravel bike or a mountain bike.
There are three route options: 98 miles; 124 miles and 152 miles. The Event HQ is in Mytholmroyd.
The route starts by taking riders out to Hebden Bridge then it’s up onto the moors and around to Castleford and back via Marsden and Todmorden.
From gravel tracks on the river floodplain, to ancient bridleways along craggy ridge lines, along sunken lanes on wooded valley slopes, to singletrack across the Pennine moors, on quiet country roads through former mill and mining towns and traffic free greenways along the urban fringe, this northern landscape has it all.
