Hardknott Pass Summit

Highlight • Summit

It is possible, just, to climb hardknott pass with bike packing gear. Put the weight forward to stop yourself falling back or sideways (which happened to half the group!). Lots of strength needed to climb this! It is possible to walk up if need be. Ignore the locals who tell you you're crazy etc.

Pretty steep on the way down too.

Wrynose Pass

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

Although it's often overlooked due to Hardknott Pass to the west, Wrynose Pass is spectacular. The views going down the road are more impressive than going up, so set some time aside to enjoy them.
