I figured it was around the 13 mile mark,

Often do the same route but I ride there and back (46 miles from home there and back)

There's a nice walking route around Howden/Derwent that takes in Sheffield's highest point.

If you're up Slippery Stones end its worth taking a look at the remains and sites of crashed planes up there.

Mmm lovely, a nice walk around a high place. What's the view like from the top?

 

Where do you think are the best views in and around Sheffield??
