If Alfred Wainwright had travelled across the UK coast to coast by mountain bike this is definitely the route he would have chosen! Our version of Wainwright's coast to coast route is one of our most adventurous C2C mountain biking holidays, from Ravenglass in the west to Robin Hood's Bay on the North Sea coast, crossing three of England's most spectacular National Parks.

Hi Peter, I just wanted to send you a quick email to thank you for your support on our ride. We had a blast, even the wet weather on the last day could not dampen the fun we had. Great route, although we sometimes found it tricky to follow (!) and accommodation were excellent. Good luck with the business and hopefully we will see you in the future…
