Crossing from Wensleydale, this stunning road drops in a series of swoops and turns. The final 300 m is precipitous and gravel strewn through three tight turns. Caution very much advised, as are hydraulic brakes! Enjoy the spectacular views but concentrate on the road at this point.

Good descent watch out of traffic as can get busy

Smooth road, good descent. Mind the steep ramp at the bottom and the gravel in the final two bends.
