We want to make sure you're on the trip that's right for you. Every Backroads trip is unique and this one is no exception.
The Lake District's beautiful yet rugged topography limits the number of available roads. Although we've carefully crafted this itinerary to feature a mix of the region's most scenic paved and dirt road-biking routes, at times we encounter small trafficked areas, as well as a few sections of dirt roads with loose rocks and sand. Of course, you're always welcome to jump in the shuttle to avoid the busier or rougher sections of the route.
Trips with a small number of guests may be supported by one Backroads Trip Leader and team of knowledgeable local guides. There will always be at least two people hiking on the trail with you.
