Lowther Loop

A steady ride with some modest hills along the way. This ride takes place on mainly quiet roads with plenty of sights along the way. Come and join us on this most beautiful and charming ride through the amazing Lowther Castle grounds and neighbouring village of Askham, described by Alfred Wainwright as "Westmorland's the most attractive village". Cycle into another world along the traffic free driveway into the grandeur of the estate grounds, before visiting Lowther Castle not to mention passing Brougham Castle and Hall along the way. This 11 mile route is a gentle ride for those wanting to saviour the best the Eden Valley has to offer! A ride certainly not to missed. It is best to wear layers and probably wise to bring waterproofs- check the weather forecast . We will pass several coffee shops so bring some money for coffee and cake.
