Extracts:
'Explore the rolling countryside at the northern end of Cheshire's sandstone spine. The ride starts in Delamere Forest, along wide tracks through mixed woodland.

'Soon you reach Kelsall, the first of three  villages nestled beneath the broad sandstone ridge. Everywhere you look there is evidence of local stone being put to good use in walls, buildings and gateposts. A steep climb from Utkinton is rewarded with panoramic views across the plain to Peckforton and the distant hills of Wales and Shropshire beyond. Look out for llamas as you go. 

'Enjoy a last 'roller-coaster' descent down the Yeld before making your way back through the forest.

'Delamere Forest Park and the area around it are part of the Mersey Forest. As you cycle you can see how the remnants of the ancient forest of Mara and Mondrum, orchards, hedgerows, farms and villages create a rich landscape for us to enjoy now and in the future.'
