Whinlatter Forest Altura Trail North Loop

Mountain Biking Trail

Hard

5.51 mi

946 ft

An exhilarating purpose-built singletrack trail with steep climbs, huge berms, jumps, fantastic descending and optional technical features.

At approximately 9.5 kilometres in length and fully waymarked, this trail features some wonderful flowing sections of singletrack. There's some steep climbing in the first half of the loop, but riders are well rewarded with what some claim to be the best downhill in the UK. Huge sweeping berms, technical forest sections and optional black graded features can all be found along the trail. The trail is best suited to proficient mountain bikers with a good level of fitness and technical trail-riding ability. Written by FATMAP Official
