Leicestershire

58 km / 36 miles
A route around the north-western area of the county including Charnwood Forest and Ashby-de-la-Zouch. The novel 'Ivanhoe' by Sir Walter Scott, written in 1819 and set in 12th century England, used the castle at Ashby and the surrounding countryside as its setting.

The start of the route at Shakerstone links with the Leicestershire Round.

(August 2020) Update - According to Leicestershire County Council's website, there is a temporary diversion around the Bardon Hill Quarry area (see pdf download below). Although they don't offer a specific alternative route, please be aware that you should be prepared to take a different course on this section.
