Harewood House

We leave Menston, head through Guiseley and tackle the steady climb up Carlton Lane to the top of Otley Chevin. The route then takes a lovely quiet lane giving us a great view of Leeds/Bradford airport. After heading through Adel we cycle towards Eccup but bypass the reservoir on this ride and head downhill to Weardley. From here we have a beautiful ride through the grounds of Harewood House. Expect to see Red Kites, Highland Cattle and of course deer - we may even see stags. After having a refreshment stop at the wondeful Muddy Boots cafe we re-trace our route through the estate grounds before tackling a short main road section to Dunkeswick. We then follow one of our favourite routes through Weeton and Castley, Pool and Otley. From Otley we head back to Menston.
