Training in Whaley Bridge

Canal basin, valley trails, a strength gym.

Peak Power Gym is Whaley Bridge's strength gym, and Warriors Fitness Centre and Transformation HQ add more gym floor. Consider Pilates runs classes, Derbyshire Krav Maga and High Peak Martial Arts teaches self-defence and martial arts, and Little Cloud Tai Chi Chuan is the gentler choice. Whaley Bridge Athletic and Buxworth football clubs play locally, and Whaley Bridge junior parkrun gives children a free run.

The canal basin here opened in 1800, and the towpath carries part of the 10-mile Goyt Way north to Etherow Country Park. If you want something steeper, the Whaley Waltz fell race climbs 900 ft to Windgather Rocks: a good target to train for with a partner who'll share the climbs.
