Trans Pennine Trail
The Trans Pennine Trail (TPT) is an exciting route for walkers, cyclists and horse riders linking the North and Irish seas, passing through the Pennines, alongside rivers and canals and through some of the most historic towns and cities in the North of England.
The Trail from coast-to-coast between Southport and Hornsea is 215 miles (346Km) long.
A north-south route connecting Leeds and Chesterfield, a spur to York and a spur to Kirkburton means there are approximately 370 miles (595 km) of Trans Pennine Trail available to explore.
A great way to explore the Trail is through one of our excellent value printed maps available through our shop .
The Trans Pennine Trail is mapped and signed all the way, mainly traffic free and is surprisingly level considering the dramatic scenery along the way. Easy gradients and surfaced paths make many sections suitable for families, gentle exercise and people using wheelchairs and pushchairs. So whether on foot, horse or cycle; for a day or longer; alone with friends and family – the Trans Pennine Trail (TPT) can offer something for everyone.
Please note that this community mission has been cancelled.
It's time for us to return to the TPT to do some more plogging (litter picking and jogging)!
We'll meet by the entrance to the trail by Penistone Skatepark (on the showground). We'll alternate between jogging intervals and litter picking along the trail for 3 to 4km.
Big bags and litter pickers will be provided, but please bring your own gloves.
This is an ideal task for people new to Goodgym - come and find out more about what we do!
How are you getting there?
