About
Travelling north towards Shap along the Lune Valley, you can't but help notice the attractive group of hills to the east. These are the Howgills, situated between the Lake District and the Dales (but directly linked to neither), a distinct range within their own right. For mountain biking they are absolutely ideal. Reasonably steep, their flanks provide ideal descents, whilst the ridges provide easy riding. The Calf is the highest peak in the group and can be reached in one steep ascent from Howgill Lane via Birkhaw and Bram Rigg. Gaining height by this route allows a long descent back to Sedbergh over Bram Rigg Top, Calders, Arrant Haw and Winder. This route is really only suitable for experienced mountain bikers but those who tackle it will experience one of the best mountain biking descents in Britain.Facilities
