    Road cycling

    Great Dun Fell is one mighty road climb heading up onto the Pennines and summiting at 2,900 feet (895 m), with an average gradient of 9% ramping up to a maximum gradient of 20% for the 4.5 mile (7 km) duration. Ouch!

    Make sure you are on a good leg day, hardest climb I've ever done. Beautiful scenery, no traffic and a good road surface. Well worth the effort and a bucket list climb being the highest tarmac road in Britain

    Cycling

    Traffic free road. Pick good weather the day you ride, very changeable up here. Take it easy its a long climb with outstanding views. Extra care coming back down, I reached 42 mph, take note of the gravel or you'll lose your wheel.
