Tour of the Dales Guided Tour

as featured in issue 35 Singletrack magazine

A five day guided mountain bike riding holiday tour of the Yorkshire Dales. As Singletrack mountain bike magazine called it 'Englands greenest and finest'.

Our exclusive 5-day supported tour takes in some of the best mountain biking the Yorkshire Dales has to offer, riding all manner of terrain, exploring some real back country trails and taking in the most amazing views. Your overnight kit is transferred each day allowing you to enjoy the riding to the full.

This is a challenging tour with rides that average 35-40 km each day. It's mostly off road with a number of big climbs on each day and riders should be of an intermediate level or above. The terrain we use is of mixed character with plenty of single-track, ancient green lanes, moor land tracks and open high fell. Any riding on tarmac has been kept to a bare minimum.

Your guide for the duration of the tour will be one of our team of professional and qualified CTC Mountain Bike Leaders. They will ensure you get the most out of this tour whether it is sorting out a mechanical on your bike, calling in at the best teashop or pointing out features of local interest during the rides.

To ensure you get the most from your time, the tour has been meticulously planned. You require one large kitbag, which is transferred from one overnight stop to the next, meaning you only need carry enough for the days ride. A mobile workshop is there to assist with any adjustments or surgery your bike may require at the end of the day's riding.

If the unthinkable happens and your bike does give up on you, we will be able to get one of our quality hire bikes to you for the next day's riding.
