Rudland Rigg Junction: Westside Road and Monket House

Junction between Ouse Gill Head (northwest) and West Gill Head (southeast). Continue north or south along Rudland Rigg, descend west into Bransdale or east into Farndale.

Tip by

11.5 km

700x35 as a minimum recommended tyre size on Rudland Rigg. Watch out for swathes of sand and newly applied hard core protective surfacing when riding. An excellent well maintained surface. Can get exposed and chilly high up in Bransdale carry a gilet and arm warmers.

Westside Road Summit

Highlight • Summit

It is pleasing to reach this summit on Westside Road, but it is not the end of the climbing. To reach this location you need to constantly climb. There was a constant north westerly headwind on the day of the trail. It is physical and demanding

Trig Point S6745, North York Moors

Highlight • Viewpoint

Gillamoor Bank Climb

Highlight • Climb

Brace yourselves for an 11% climb. In places it’s 18%, so prep the small gears and get churning. Great way to finish this loop if you’ve parked in Gillamoor.
