Along the way, expect to encounter craggy sea stacks, patches of heather-studded moorland, and native wildlife such as curlews and skylarks.
The electric assist of the Trek Powerfly Medium makes climbing the moorland bridleways a breeze, encouraging exploration beyond the popular coastal stretch.

The bike’s durability and range equip riders to spend a full day traversing varied terrain without worry.
