Both the Hollinsclough and Tenterhill descents are tough and brilliant.

Much harder than the beast by comparison.

The ride in White Peak Mountain biking takes them both in but is a bit short (good for about 2-3 hours) bits of it can be very muddy as well

They are awesome descents, the faster you go the easier they are.

They are not the usual peaks descents though which are usually loose rocks / boulders. Much smoother sand stone / grit stone. You have to watch out for 4x4s and scramblers at weekends though.
