Askham fell, accessed from Lowther caravan site, (Eamont bridge) is a regular local ride,you could ride from whinfell from the southern cliburn to brougham road,do not ride on the A66, its a death trap.
Askham fell, (moor divock) is near to pooley bridge and is probably best known for the descent towards how town,and then the Ullswater single track,return loop from Boredale hause,any of the bridleways on the 150.000 scale maps are ok, but avoid the highstreet Roman road, its a bog this time of year. enjoy.
Make sure you lock your bikes up or keep them in the lodges, i know one of the guys on security and theft is a major problem…
