Mountain Biking Holiday

The Lake District of Cumbria in the North West of England is one of the most beautiful regions in the world with such a wide diversity of natural beauty on offer, from the famous lakes and waters, to the lush woodland forests and steep mountain peaks. One of the best ways to experience the natural beauty of the Lake District, while having some fun and adventure at the same time, is to pack up your tent and backpack, get on your mountain bike and ride. There are a number of biking trails located throughout the Lake District catering for mountain bikers of all levels of fitness, skill and ability. You can choose to take a leisurely ride around one of the lakes, an exploration route through a wooded forest, or a challenging climb up one of the mountain peaks which will you’re your mountain biking skills to the limit. With such a wide variety of trails and routes to follow, the best way to start is to get one of the mountain biking guide books which provide all the information you need to get under way. Camp sites scattered throughout the Lake District, all offering a range of excellent facilities, provide the ideal choice for affordable accommodation amidst the natural beauty of the region with breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. Imagine waking up to the quiet sounds of nature in the middle of a lush forest, or on the side of a mountain with uninterrupted views of the surrounding landscape. The fresh air and vast unspoilt nature are just what you need to get a new lease on life, forgetting about the day to day stresses of living in the concrete jungle.

    The area you mention is a delightful one and possibly one of my favorite areas of the UK.

    In reply to James above, I am a keen mountain biker however I do not know of many trails in the areas you ask about, but I am sure there are many trials for you to enjoy there.

    Devon and Cornwall have some great trials to ride, including Bodmin Moor and Dartmoor as well as some great downhilling on Haldon hill, just outside of Exeter. There is now a purpose built down hill course there I understand whih gnarly burns and quality track.

    Good luck
