The Esk 2 Esk Cycle Route is a brace of both on-road and off-road mountain bike routes. Between the two, Esk 2 Esk MTB Routes pass through terrific landscape and at points give opportunity to ride on the roads of Le Grand Tour Stage one 2014.

Your cross-country adventure will begin on the West Coast at Ravenglass in the Lake District passing through the Yorkshire Dales National Park & Esk Valley to the East Coast at Whitby in the North York Moors, the scenery cannot be rivalled anywhere else and you will experience moments of solitude to all-out adventure and excitement. It’s worth mentioning here that the Esk 2 Esk Cycle Route intersects the Dozen Dales Cycle Route in the Yorkshire Dales, another of our routes to put on your to do list!

If you opt for the on-road MTB Route from Ravenglass, you travel through Kendal, Sedburgh, Aysgarth, Richmond, North Allerton Before you reach Osmotherley and your end point in Whitby. The off-road MTB Route adds Kirkby Stephen after Ravenglass and through the North York Moors onto your end point in Robin Hoods Bay.

This cycle route, whichever of the two you choose, will be a journey of the senses, taking in some of this country’s rich offerings over 3 to 5 days depending upon your ability.

We can fully support your ride from start to finish and supply bike transport to the start point and collection from the end point. Baggage transfers can also be arranged and delivered to your chosen accommodation along the route ahead of your arrival.

Eco Cycle Adventures has capabilities to cater for all sized groups.

Our fleet comprises of cars, mini buses and mini coaches, fully equipped with specialised bike trailers and top of the range Thule bike carriers. We regularly service the Esk2Esk route with 8 – 16 people with bikes, but we have capacity to take up to 70+ at one time.

Our team, some with first aid training and with a general knowledge of bike mechanics, if requested, are enthusiastic, friendly and eager to help.

Our transfer packages for riders, bikes and bags will vary depending upon whether you’re collected from your home, multiple collection points, transport hubs or the amount of people travelling in your group.

Firstly, if you need to be transported to the start of the cycle route you’re about to embark, you need to establish where you would like to be collected with your bike & baggage. Also, will this be one point for all or does each of your group require separate collections from different points?

Next, depending on the length of your cycle route and the number of days you’re cycling will dictate how many stop-overs you require. Find this out and we will collect your baggage and take it ahead of your arrival to your chosen accommodation, then collect it the following day and do the same for the duration of your cycle route. At the end of the ride, we will collect you and your group with bags and take you back to your pre-arranged drop-off point, again this may be one point for the whole group or individual drop-off’s.

All of our transfer packages for riders, bikes and baggage are individually priced with all of the above taken into consideration. We are very competitive and take care with each enquiry having already transported thousands of enthusiastic riders and their invaluable bikes and even more bags.
