Forest of Bowland Gravel Ride

A stunning loop starting at Slaidburn. This route heads up over Salter fell to Wray before heading East along quiet lanes where you join Keasden Road. Climb for approximately 4.5 miles to Bowland Knotts and take in the incredible views before dropping back down past Gisburn Forest Centre and the lanes back to Slaidburn. While the majority of the ride is along roads, they are quiet and the views provide a nice distraction from the buzz of tyres on tarmac. Suitable for CX/Gravel bikes or beefier, some sections of Salter fell will rattle your bones a bit but they don't last long.

Technical difficulty - Medium (some sections of Salter Fell are rough or loose).
Fitness Required - Medium (some punchy or prolonged climbs).
