Embark on a moderate touring bicycle ride through the stunning Lake District National Park with the Elterwater loop on the Coniston cycleways. This route takes you past the tranquil Elter Water lake, through the scenic Langdale Valley, and offers views of the dramatic Langdale Pikes. You will experience varied terrain, including smooth gravel paths, quiet country lanes, and some unpaved segments, all while enjoying the natural beauty of emerald fells, forests, and rivers. Covering 14.5 miles (23.3 km) with an elevation gain of 1186 feet (361 metres), this loop typically takes about 1 hour and 50 minutes to complete.
This moderate route is popular among local touring cyclists and requires good fitness due to its varied surfaces and undulating sections. While parts of the Elterwater Cycle Path are smooth, be prepared for some unpaved segments. The area is well-regarded for its permitted cycleways and quiet country lanes, making it an excellent choice for a day out. Consider starting your ride in the morning to make the most of the peaceful atmosphere and beautiful light.
The Elterwater loop is notable for showcasing diverse landscapes within the Lake District, allowing you to follow the River Brathay and discover waterfalls like Skelwith Force and Colwith Force. The presence of traffic-free trails near Elterwater village and alongside Great Langdale Beck adds to its appeal, providing a safe and enjoyable cycling experience. This trail offers a fantastic opportunity to immerse yourself in the natural beauty and charm of the Lake District.
