Guided Day MTB Rides

Guided Mountain Biking - No-one knows Swaledale like we do..

Swaledale in the Yorkshire Dales is a stunning place to mountain bike but adventure here is earned.  Navigation is a key part of mountain biking the Yorkshire Dales.  If navigation isn't your strong point or you simply want to make the upmost of your time in Swaledale then let us lead the way.

Guiding and Support:

Our professional qualified team of mountain bike guides have many years of mountain biking experience.  All are Cycling UK 'Technical' qualified leaders, first aid qualified and hold other qualifications within the outdoors industry.   We will ensure you get the absolute most out of your Guided Mountain Bike day, afterall time is precious.  Support is never far away, back at base just a phone call away there's always a support vehicle at the ready to assist with any problems.

The Riding:

Using our extensive local knowledge of the natural trails network from our door we will weave together some amazing riding days.  You won't find man-made boardwalks, sculpted berms or handbuilt table tops. You will ride through big landscapes, awesome scenery, real adventures on trails that you're not likely to see another rider. One minute it's singletrack not much wider than your tyre, next winching you way up a rocky moorland trail then onto flying down a fast rocky descent with fruity little steps, loose corners and drops to focus the mind. The trails around here drain well due to a predominantly limestone landscape giving good all weather trails, not much mud around here!

Food:

It's not just about the riding afterall, we know about feeding cyclists, in fact our cafe is listed in the 'Bike Hub' top 20 cycle cafe stops in the UK. Take a seat to refuel and sample our great coffee, order from our menu and indulge in our awesome cakes!
