Mountain biking in Sedbergh - the Howgills.
For keen mountain bikers
Sedbergh has the ridge route along the top of the Howgills from the Calf south to Arant Haw followed by the descent from Winder to Howgill Lane.
Not for the faint hearted as this is a tough undertaking as you are faced with a 1770 ft (540m) climb from Sedbergh via Birkhaw to the top, much of it a steep grassy push.
