THE BIKE ROUTE
The Lakes mountain bike route at just over 15km includes in our opinion one of the finest downhill trails in the UK. From the main venue you’ll head out on quiet country lanes as you climb up towards Ridding How. As you break out onto the fells, it’s one last push before you hit the summit of your climb on the old Roman Road. We’ve planned this route to be accessible for all riders, nothing too technical, and a route that will not unnerve the MTB novice, yet still excite the pro riders out there. The Ullswater Way is just over 3km of downhill with the most breathtaking views across Ullswater and to the mountain ranges in the south. It’s then back along the lake edge road to complete your 15km, Long distance riders will head around to complete a 2nd lap with just over 30km and 524m of ascent.
*THE BIKE DISTANCE IS A GUIDE AND CAN BE SHORTENED OR LENGTHENED SUBJECT TO TRAIL CONDITIONS, ROAD WORKS, OR BAD WEATHER
