Scenic, non-technical, e-bike ride through the Lowther Valley and up onto the Helton/Askham Fells

Scenic, low level, hardtail e-bike ride in the English Lake District National Park (Lowther Valley & Helton/Askham Fells) with panoramic views down onto Ullswater. The route uses bridleways (roughly 55% off road) and minor roads where possible and is suitable for those riders who don't fancy the more technical, high level routes; the routes that are readily available in books, magazines, youtube etc.
This ride is 23 miles long but can easily shortened.
A basic map showing the route is available at the end of the video.
The video pays particular attention to the terrain to ensure potential riders can judge if the route is suitable for their level of riding ability. I've put together this ride and several others (work in progress) as I've found a distinct lack of detailed information on rideable off road routes for those of us with mountain e-bikes (hardtail or full suspension) who want to enjoy an easier ride. I've spent considerable time walking bridleways to assess rideability as many are just not suitable for our needs or just overgrown!
The number of senior e-bike riders appears to be rapidly increasing and I'm hoping these routes will be useful to those visiting Cumbria and the Lake District and maybe even the local residents, like ourselves.

Completed this route recently and it’s highly recommended. It’s comes with fantastic scenery and a fell view that is really rewarding. Thanks for doing this guide.
