Epic eMTB Ride up Skiddaw via Lonscale Crags ⚡️⛰️
Today’s ride takes on one of the Lake District’s most iconic peaks – Skiddaw – via the stunning (and seriously tough) Lonscale Crags route. This one is all about big climbs, breathtaking views, and putting the eMTB to the test.
Starting from the base, the climb kicks in early with a mix of rocky doubletrack and steep gradients that don’t let up. The assistance definitely earns its keep here, but it’s still a proper leg-burner! As we gain height, the views over Keswick, Derwentwater, and the surrounding fells just keep getting better.
Reaching Lonscale Crags, the terrain gets more technical with loose rock, exposed sections, and that proper mountain feel. From there, it’s a push to the summit of Skiddaw – one of the highest peaks in England – before taking in the incredible panoramic views.
If you’re into eMTB adventures, big climbs, and raw Lake District riding, this one’s for you.

It won't let me put the photo up there was a face in the clouds on your decent lol
Great View…
One of my favourite places to be over there ! The mountain with soooo many descents and rides. Great video and editing bud
Great video. It looks an amazing ride.
Just a suggestion. If you want to improve your brakes without spending a fortune. Try fitting Galfer ebike brake pads(purple ones) I've just replaced my standard shimano ones and it made a massive improvement. Cheers 👍
What camera are you using to film and where do you mount it please ?
