Limestone Rocks - Ingleton

Ingleton - Thornton in Lonsdale
print Printer friendly

A bike ride starting from the centre of Ingleton and  reaching into the fringes of The Lune valley towards the village of Thornton in Lonsdale.

There are eye-catching views throughout this ride. Expect fine views of limestone cliffs, The Three Peaks, underground caves and on a clear day views of the sea at Morecambe Bay, As usual Pendle Hill looms in the distance.

The rides mainly off-road, but includes probably one of the best short tarmac sections I know, lots of eye candy and very chilled

Easy enough overall and there’s at least a couple of fairly decent downhill sections to look forward to towards the end, nothing too challenging.

Expect some grassy slow-going sections midway and the pasture climb from Kingsdale is too steep to ride (its hard enough walking).

Overall its fairly slow going

Food & stuff

We were a bit mythed, looking forward to a few pre ride pies from Pearsons the award winning Ingleton butcher. Only to find out they werent open Tuesdays.

A horde of locals persuaded us that the shop next door sold good pies, and they were right. (just one shop down)

Also try Inglesport Cafe for full English, and the New Inn at Clapham a couple of miles away for the best local beer garden.
