Mountain Bike Holidays in the UK and around the world - The Lake District

The Lake District - Beginners

An easy paced weekend of in the Lake District, developed for those fairly new to mountain biking.

With direct trains journeys from London only just over 3 hours long, Penrith is the perfect setting for this very popular mountain bike weekend. Our routes around Ulswater, Blencathra, and Greystoke Castle are on a combination of bridleways and forest tracks and led by our experienced guides provide an excellent introduction to mountain biking.

Perfectly positioned in the town of Penrith with its plethora of great local pubs and restaurants our freindly B&B provides the perfect base for this weekend and offer a little luxury at the end of a hard day’s ride. Evening meals on Friday or taken at a great local pub and no doubt accompanied with a few local ales, with Saturday's meal in a fun local restaurant.

The Lake District views are stunning throughout as you bike along the open fells in peace and tranquillity associated with this part of the UK.

Our support vehicle carries plenty of delicious munchies for the ‘snack stops’, as well as lots of drinks and a delicious buffet-style lunch. It’s also got bike spares and space for tired bikers if the going gets too tough.

Hop on the train if you want to avoid the weekend traffic and we'll even collect you / drop you off at the station.
