It is widely known that the Lake District, which has recently gained UNESCO World Heritage status for its spectacular scenery, has some of the best natural mountain bike trails in the world.

With this in mind, Biketreks specialist cycle store, Lakes MTB and Langdale Hotel have joined forces to offer the ultimate team-building escape or corporate retreat – A mountain bike adventure break in the Lakes.

The breaks launch in May, can be tailored for all abilities and provide the ideal escape from the office – a complete and dramatic change of scenery.

They will run regularly throughout the year and include three nights’ luxury accommodation, two days of guided riding with a British Cycling qualified guide, secure bike storage, laundry and drying facilities, qualified mechanic for last minute tune ups in Biketrek’s workshop, breakfast each day, t shirt and water bottle.  Biketreks can even hire a pro photographer to document guests’ guided rides so that they can go home with some killer shots of their experience.

The two days of guided riding kick off at Biketreks’ store in Ambleside, where guests will meet their guide and enjoy a cuppa before heading out for a full day’s riding.  The day can be tailored to guests’ preferences, with everything from family friendly adventures to high summit, rocky, technical singletrack possible.  There will either be a stop for lunch at a great pub, or a chance to tuck in to a packed lunch and the guided rides will conclude at 4.30pm when guests will head back to Biketreks for a debrief before returning to Langdale Hotel.
