Riding Real Mountains
Lots a superb routes with great variety and brilliant scenery
What do you like?
Artificial trails are imitations of mountains - this is the real thing.
Superb views that add to the experience
Open 365/24/7
Free at point of access
Loads of variety
Routes as long or short as you want to make them
A lot of cheeky trails in addition
Often you seem to have the whole area to yourself
What could be improved?
Must carry gear in case of breakdown/weather/injury in remote locations
Unless you seek advice there are some lousy routes as well as good ones so you could be unlucky - ask/research first and you'll be OK
Avoid honeypot (Windermere, Ambleside, etc.) in summer holidays - traffic on roads and bridleways
Predicting timing can be difficult because of the variety of terrain and other factors
Would you recommend?
*Yes*

Lakes - An Epic Place
There are some truly Epic rides in the lakes, but you can also get caught out with long sections of unrideable trail - planning is important.
Sometimes however that 90min walk with your bike is worth the descent or views or both.
What do you like?
Superb Terrain, vast, some good long steep downhills, Epic views.
What could be improved?
Its not made for MTB's so you can get caught out with no preparation and research on your route.
Can be very busy with walkers at peak holiday times and nice weather.
Would you recommend?
*Yes*
