Base Summary: Whinlatter Mountain Bike Centre
Whinlatter can be found just outside the town of Keswick in the Lake District, practically on the doorstep of the village of Braithwate.
Whinlatter is one of two purpose built MTB centres in the Lake District along with Grizedale Forest and along with a network of forestry tracks and bridleways, has three MTB trails to suit the beginner through to the more technical rider. Like most places in the area, it’s well geared up for holidaymakers and families.
