Lake District road trip




We did the 6 hour drive up to the Lake District National Park and checked out Whinlatter Forest Park and Grizedale Forest mtb trails, Grizedale has a top rep as a trail spot and it does have some cool xc trails, but for me i think whinlatters "The Altura Trail" has to be a trail to ride, provides 12 miles of challenging climbs, jumps and steep drops its one of the few xc trails that i have rode that i can see why drop posts would be a plus, This xc trails has some steep sections and even a bit north shore and some jumps all in the mix, well worth a visit what ever the time of year.
