Home of Beatrix Potter, and Kendal Mint Cake, the Lake District is one of the most beautiful areas in the UK and we are in the heart of it. Riding really does not get more beautiful and rewarding then this.
Route description:
The Lake District is one of the most beautiful areas in the UK and we are in the heart of it. Based out of Coniston just west of the Lake and below The Old Man, the routes take in the trails between Lake Windermere and Coniston. Beautiful views over the surrounding countryside, a mixture of single track and fire roads which remain ride-able all year, we are sure that this one is guaranteed to please.
