Martindale valley reccy from Poorly Bridge

The ride will start in the market square where the large fish sundial monument stands. This is because there are a number of paying car parks as well as free on road parking places. The ride will travel out of the village towards the Eastern side of Ullswater lake passing Howtown & Sandwick. This is on country road with a few small hills, we carry on then we have a big winding road to climb, we will get off and walk or meet at the top. Here you will get some magnificent photos of Ullswater lake and valley. We continue on a newly laid road with lots of loose chippings (be careful if you're on a road bike.) the road is undulation until the end where there's a slight climb to Dale Head. This is where you will see the deer/stags on the towering mountains, We will return by the same route.
