Cycle Steps
1. The first part of this route is a fast ride down through Egremont to Bekermet. There are then some big climbs over Cold Fell, followed by a fast decent to Ennerdale. The climbing starts again and takes you to Kirkland, then into Rowrah and Arlecdon (blink and you'll miss them). Turn right onto Dub Brow and take the final climb up Steel Brow. From this point it's an easy ride for the rest of the way back to Hensingham.
