    Tips

    July 2, 2018

    Push and ride your way up 700m in just 5km. Take in the view and zip past down avoiding the sheep and the walkers!

      September 22, 2022

      It's a slog up. Unless you're superhuman (or on an ebike) you'll be pushing the first bit over Jenkin Hill. Gradient relents after that, middle section is quite gentle, and the final steep bit towards the summit is just about rideable if you can pick a good line through the loose shale. Coming back down the same way is great fun but a bit of a brake boiler and generally quite busy with walkers from 0900 or so. Best to go very early morning/evening and get the place to yourself.
