Top Touring Cycling Routes to Hartside Top
Tips
  • The highest point of the Pennine Cycleway and the ultimate achievement for cyclists coming from the south or north.

    At the top stands a Sustrans Millennium milepost, providing a perfect vantage to take in the distant Lakeland fells.

    Once, a café graced this summit, renowned for its famous home baking. Unfortunately, in around 2017, it met its demise in a blaze.

    The descent in both directions offers a thrilling ride on excellent tarmac, with a road that's not overly steep.
