Dropping into Swaledale is a delight (if you have hydraulic discs. Rim brake users turn away now.). The rolling, sweeping road drops steeply to the Crow Trees farm, where the lady of the house ALWAYS has her washing out, even in Winter… The switchbacks are very steep & sometimes have a bit of road grit to add some ‘excitement’. Get it right & it’s very satisfying. Get it wrong & you’ll be wearing AG2R shorts…

Really enjoyable climb winding it's way up the valley, some steep sections to contend with.
