Avoid the man made stuff for the best trails
Don't be put off by the negative reviews but do realise it's hilly here so it will be hard work.
Good points:
The man made trails aren't the best but can still be fun but the best riding is on the periphery of the forest. Some great rides can be had by interlinking natural bridleway a with sections of the North a Face route and also by dropping out of the forest into Hawkhead, Claife, Sattertwaite, Coniston or Nibthwaite. Some reviewers have complained there are too many hills nut this is the Lakes! For anyone with children choose your route wisely as too many hills here could put you off cycling instead of encouraging them.
Bad points:
Some trails, especially man made ones, are suffering from erosion from over use. Parking fees are expensive but that's life nowadays, cafe can be hit n miss too.
Would you recommend?
