Coastline, moorland and untamed forest.
Pick up a cycling guide from the Forest Retreat and explore the High Muffles Loop, Spiers Bank or the longer Cropton Circular which takes you into the heart of the forest.
Tackle the 26.5mile Bransdale Loop, or the nine-mile Spaunton Manor Circuit which passes by local villages and plenty of country pubs.
National Route 1 takes in the coast from Whitby down to Scarborough, along the Cinder Track while Route 165 runs through the beautiful Esk Valley.
Just a quick drive from Cropton or Keldy.
Get closer to the natural world at Dalby Forest - a Dark Sky Discovery Site home to an abundance of wildlife and six off-road cycling trails.
For Dalby Forest cycling, our top picks include the Ellerburn Family Cycle Route (a multi-user pathway for disabled cyclists, walkers and wheelchair users) and the 14.5 mile Dalby Forest Loop which captures a flavour of the forest and its surrounding moorland (suitable for all abilities).
There’s also a minibike skills area at Low Dalby and forest cycling trails that range from green (easy) to black (severe). Whether you’re seeking family-friendly fun or adrenaline-fueled mountain biking, Dalby Forest has it all.
The perfect way to kickstart your break at Cropton or Keldy.
