The Dove Valley Trail is part of the Trans Pennine Trail and this section runs from Worsbrough Bridge through attractive countryside to Silkstone Common. It follows an old railway line so has only a few slight gradients though it is steadily uphill to Slikstone Common (81m rise over 6000m of path).The surface varies with some uneven and muddy patches but generally it is firm and wide enough for two people side by side.There are 13 seats or resting points along the route, check out the tags on map to see how they are spaced along the route.The start of the trail is well marked by the junction of Park Road (A61) and Vernon Road, in Worsbrough Bridge. Ordnance Survey Grid Reference SE 351 036. Parking is available on nearby streets or at Wosbrough Country Park (Pay & Display) about 300m away.
