The Coast to Coast Challenge

The Coast to Coast Challenge follows the route of the 135m cycle path across England. Starting in Whitehaven, you will cycle through the old coal ming lanscape of Cumbria, through the beautiful Lake District, before riding up onto the Pennines, and down onto the east coast. It is a popular route enjoyed by many cyclist each year, but with some seriously hard climbs thrown in! Bikes and helmets are available for hire or you can bring your own.

Itinerary
Thursday We stay the night in Whitehaven. Friday 55m to Penrith, one big climb today at Whinlatter, the rest  of our route is undulating.
