West Chevin Road Climb

Highlight • Climb

Steady climb with a short steep section

Tip by

12.4 km

Otley isn't just a really characteristic town, it's also mad about cycling, not least because it is the home of Lizzie Armitstead, Olympic road race silver medallist at London 2012. Loads of cafes and a whole lot of charm.
