Gravel Path in Lake District National Park

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A beautiful section of off-road riding. I did this on my gravel bike - it was quite technical at times (given the bike) but absolutely stunning. 100% would recommend.

Climb to Blea Tarn

Gravel Climb to Lake Viewpoint

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Easy gravel, not a crazy gradient, 10/10 trees that'll make you feel like you're in Canada (- fear of Bear attack), and an epic view over the lake at the top. Can't beat that.
