Cycle Steps
1. A nice double loop around Swaledale and Arkengarthdale. There are four legs to the route: (1) Richmond to Reeth, fairly flat with a few gentle climbs (2) Reeth to the PunchBowl - hilly but great views down Swaledale (3) PunchBowl to Reeth - Up over the tops, a few steep climbs, but again, rewarding countryside (4) Reeth back to Richmond, via the b road, hillier that the route out, but quieter and again great views. No idea how long it would take to ride as I have not ridden it's entirety yet, will update when I have
Landmarks/Sites to see?
Bike shop in Reeth, Punch Bowl inn at far Western point of route and CB Inn at far Northern end of route.
