Grizedale/Coniston Off-Piste

Afternoon. Years back there were loads of ace trails dropping off the top of the NFT at Grizedale and running all the way down to Coniston. I know widespread logging on that hillside destroyed the trails but I saw a vid (can’t tell when its from) of trails starting to spring up again on the hillside. Anyone know whats there? Worth it checking if I’m in the area?

Top of Viking is still really good.

Cheeky V has been opened up again and buffed up a bit, it was running really well a month or two ago.

Supanoodle looks open but I didn’t fancy it (v steep).

Worth looking round the back of Bogle Crag and near the Satterthwaite DH (same side as Bogle) for newer tracks as well. I spend more time riding there than the Coniston side these days.

Cheers – planning a days riding over that way sometime so I’ll take a look

We went exploring the grizedale off piste last year. Not the stuff down to lake conistin though.

It was wet

It was *death*

I really want to go back, in the dry. I reckon some of them will be absolutely superb….but in the wet, no chance.

Have look below Lawsons Park, some bits in there still unloggified

*Grinds teeth* It’s Coniston Water.
