Jingle Pot Road Climb

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Huge 1 mile climb to the top of Fremington Edge, averaging a gradient of 12% but hitting almost 45% in places. Be prepared for a sore neck the next day from looking up the entire climb, well worth it for the views from the top on a clear day!

Fremington Edge

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

A superb descent from the tops on this bridleway. Some loose Rocky sections with evidence of flood damage. Also has some fast grassy sections with natural berms to keep your flow...

Stepping Stones Across the River Swale

Highlight • Structure

A useful set of stones here to enable you to cross the river. Obviously, after rain and certainly if the river is in spate, you will not be able to cross as the stones will be submerged underwater.

16.5 km

Reeth Swing Bridge

Highlight • River

This interesting swing bridge is not the first one that was built here. The original one was built in 1920 and stood here for 80 years until September 2000 when it was damaged in some severe floods (the River Swale, in spate, can rise up to 3 metres in 20 minutes). Since then, this new bridge has been put here to replace the badly damaged previous one.

Harkerside Moor

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A steady climb above Long Scar onto Harkerside Moor takes you to the highest point in the ride, and it's here that you are rewarded with the furthest reaching views across the other side of the Swale Valley, to Reeth Low Moor, Garthdale and beyond - a picturesque patchwork of lush green hills and dry stone walls, so typical of the Dales.

Grinton Moor

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Once you've left Grinton and have crossed the steep cattle grid, keep going straight on to reach Grinton Moor. (There's a turning on your right after the cattle grid to Greets Moor.) It's about a 4km climb in total, with a mid-section of 500 metres at 16 percent. Absolutely stunning views for miles on a clear day. Blustery on other days! The heather and its colours are at their best in late summer, early autumn, so prepare for a few photo stops.
