If you are driving from the south then come off the M6 motorway at Junction 39 (there are good services just 4 miles before here at Tebay with a shop and food) towards A6 Shap. Drive through Shap and in a further four miles the World Trial signs will direct you to an access road that passes under the M6. The following grid references and 'satnav' numbers point you to the junction of that access road. The actual trial field is at the end of a single track road in another 1 mile. This also leads to the camping site.

Please note that one way traffic will be in operation and you will be directed to leave the site on a different road. This will exit on to the A6 two miles north near Hackthorpe. You will not be able to get into the trial site from Lowther Castle or Lowther Village which are three miles away at the other end of the estate.
