    Tips

    August 20, 2018

    The roads to and from Blea Tarn are absolutely spectacular. For cyclists, the climb from the North (Oxendale) is the toughest (best) and is one of the best climbs in the Lakes.

      Tough climb from the Langdale valley.

        April 16, 2025

        April 2025 - The road has been mostly resurfaced, to an excellent, billiard table standard, from the Little Langdale junction to the cattle grid at the top, just before you descend to Wall End in Great Langdale. Enjoy it before it falls to pieces again!
