    One of the best climbs in the area. A steady climb on forest lined roads up to the Whinlatter vistor centre. A good challenge but not as murderous as Honister Pass or Newlands Hause. A must for anyone visiting on a road bike.

      Great loop if you want to get a few of the lake districts climbs in, it was great weather too, but I can't guarantee that for you.



      At the top of the Whinlatter climb you can pop into the Visitors center for a coffee and cake if you are that way inclined.

        Great road climb, even better descent as it's not too steep. Some pinches of 15% but mostly a manageable 7-11%. Only issue is that the road surface is currently the pre-tarmac gravel stuff, which tempers descending somewhat.
