For those who love the challenge of mountain biking, Coed-y-Llwyn is a superb choice. Located in Snowdonia National Park, this campsite puts you on the doorstep of some of Wales' most renowned mountain bike trails. From exhilarating descents to challenging climbs, the surrounding forests and mountains offer endless opportunities for adrenaline-pumping adventures. Road cyclists will also appreciate the dramatic scenery and quiet roads for some epic climbs.
On the edge of the Peak District National Park, Blackshaw Moor is ideal for those who love varied terrain. From challenging climbs and exhilarating descents on road bikes to fantastic mountain biking trails in the surrounding hills, there's something for every cyclist. The Manifold Valley Trail, a traffic-free route, is also nearby, offering a gentler option for families.
Lower Wensleydale Club Campsite
In the heart of the Yorkshire Dales, Lower Wensleydale is a dream for cyclists who love rolling landscapes and charming villages. The quiet country roads are perfect for leisurely tours, taking you through picturesque dales and past historic castles. For more challenging rides, explore the climbs that featured in the Tour de Yorkshire, offering stunning views as your reward.
Chester Fairoaks Club Campsite
We’re biased as this is local to Bikmo, but it’s a great base for cycling because it’s close to scenic off-road and canal routes that take you straight into Chester and the surrounding countryside - including a flat, peaceful ride along the Shropshire Union Canal towpath into the historic city centre - ideal for all levels of cyclists and e-bikes.
