Paseo rápido en bici de Windermere a Ambleside

Set off from Windermere, the lively Lakeland town famous for its lake views and Victorian charm, and head north towards Ambleside on a classic Lake District cycling route. Covering just under 20 km, you’ll climb and descend over some hilly terrain, especially in the first half—expect over 500 meters of ascent, so be ready for a good workout!

The route winds mostly along quiet country roads and paved cycleways, with only short stretches on busy roads and the occasional bit of gravel. As you pedal, you’ll get glimpses of rolling fells, woodland, and—if you catch a clear day—some fantastic views down to Lake Windermere itself.

Arriving in Ambleside, you’ll find a welcoming town packed with outdoor shops, cozy cafés, and lots of places to refuel and relax by the water or the historic Bridge House. Whether you’re cycling for the scenery, the exercise, or just the joy of a classic Lake District ride, this route has a bit of everything!
