MTB Route of the Month


January '20 Mountain Bike Route of the Month - 35km

Swaledale mountain bike route taking in stacks of great trails.   Warm up along part of Swale Trail before the first kick of a climb, then take in the stunning view across Swaledale from Blades.  Climbing a section of road before taking a left and more climbing towards Whaw Moor and a wicked descent.  A tempting liquid break at the Red Lion, Langthwaite before the next target descent, one of our favourites 'Angry Man' and the final blast along the road back to Dales Bike Centre for medals, coffee and cake.
