Paseo rápido en bici de Leeds a Lofthouse

Start your ride in the heart of Leeds, a vibrant Yorkshire city known for its historic arcades, excellent shopping, and great food scene. From the buzz of Leeds, you’ll head south toward Lofthouse, a quiet village just outside Wakefield with roots going back to coal mining days.

The route covers just over 17 km and is mostly on paved surfaces, making it a fairly smooth trip—perfect for a leisurely ride or a quick commute. Expect gently rolling hills with a manageable ascent of around 126 meters, so you’ll get some light exercise without any big climbs. Most of this route is along designated cycleways and quiet roads, keeping you away from too much traffic.

A few sections might be unpaved or gravel, so a hybrid or road bike with sturdy tires is a good choice. When you arrive in Lofthouse, take a moment to check out its charming surroundings and the nearby Rhubarb Triangle—this area is famous for its unique pink rhubarb! All in all, a solid city-to-village adventure with a taste of West Yorkshire’s contrasts.
