Shap - Orton - Crosby Ravenswoth loop

Starting at Shap Memorial Hall, we cycle through the village then turn left for Orton. The is a short busy section followed by a quiet road across the fell to Orton, where we can stop for coffee. There is a steep hill to Orton Scar - walking may be necessary for a while - then a beautiful lane down to Crosby Ravensworth. After turning left for Shap, there is another steep hill - walking again an option, before a flat section and descent back into Shap. A lovely ride - with a few short challenges - but there's plenty of time.....................
