WMB 104 Swaledale Yorkshire_Beginner (Blue) Route

Start/Finish: SE 04602 98862 Fremington Total distance: 7.8km (4.85 miles) Total ascent: 64m (210ft) Total Time: 30-90 minutes Route summary: This is a beautiful and mostly flat route mixing farm tracks, meadows and riverside singletrack to give beginners a great introduction to this northerly Yorkshire Dale. If you fancy incorporating some more strenuous and technical riding, you can easily tag the start or finish of the Moderate Ride onto this one. Turn right out of Dales Bike Centre and over the bridge. Turn right up past the church as the road curves round to the left. Turn right again along the singletrack road between dry stone walls. Continue straight onto the bridleway as the road turns left uphill. Follow the farm track until it opens out into riverside meadows. Follow singletrack along the riverside to a gate. Go through (remember to close it after you) and traverse upwards under Stubbin Farm up to the road. Have a drink and a breather then retrace your route down to the river and along to the bike centre. by ocoutts
