Castle Hill & Beyond

Join us on this fantastic route taking in some of the finer views of Huddersfield.  Starting in Almondbury we soon get our first glimpse of Castle hill before we make our way onto Farnley Tyas where we will loop around the beautiful surrounding villages.  As with the majority of Kirklees to get anywhere you have to get up to the top in the first place and this ride is no different.  Once we have got the initial climb out of the way the route pretty much stays on the tops which is where we are able to appreciate the best of the views.  On the way back we get the chance to stop at Castle Hill and soak in what we have achieved!  This ride is not to be missed by anybody wanting to take their recreational cycling a little further in terms of distance and hills. If you’re fairly confident on your bike and ready to broaden your cycling horizons, our Steady rides are ideal. At a comfortable pace, and possibly with some modest hills along the way, rides take place on mainly quiet roads with plenty of sights along the way. Rides are between 6 and 20 miles long, at a moderate pace of between 7 and 10 miles an hour.
