Organiser's Description

Starting from the New Dungeon Ghyll Hotel in Great Langdale, the Loop is approximately 69 miles long, taking in some of the finest views of the Lake District and some its most challenging climbs. The route includes Newlands Pass, Hardknott Pass and Wrynose Pass and if you're hoping that the rest is flat, then you're going to be disappointed. It's one of the oldest events in the North West and remains a classic.
