Tips from the Community
Snypedales Country Park is a good starting point for a Lincolnshire Wolds ride. Though the park is for walkers only, half a mile on road and you have access to bridleways and single track for much of your ride across multiple routes. It is Β£1 to park but you have toilets and a picnic area for after ride recovery. Terrain is challenging at an intermediate level. This route has one short segment (50 yards-ish) that were too steep for me to keep my front wheel grounded but that gets you to nice high ground with great views :-)

Thanks for highlighting this bridleway. We'd have missed out on a nice bit of traffic free route.

This is a section that is not easy to ride through, uphill riding in a corn field, the surface is loose soil boulder, you can not ride quickly over it, it does take effort and energy to pass through this location

Clear to see the tracks here, looking downhill slightly you can see the meandering wavy route ahead. The surfaces have been laid with hardcore recently (Sep 2024). Enjoyable to ride through and good scenery
