Please note that this Segment is really better suited to wider tyres with decent puncture protection.
28-32mm as a minimum in the dry and something wider with some knobbles in the wetter months wouldn't go amiss - a gravel or flat-bar bike would be my recommendation.

A Cycling Journey

October 2, 2020

This stretch of National Cycle Network 246 (sustrans.org.uk/find-a-route-on-the-national-cycle-network/route-246) runs off-road along Monarch's Way and The Test Way (which in this section follow the same path).

The Monarch's Way is a 625-mile (1,006 km) footpath in England that approximates the escape route taken by King Charles II in 1651 after being defeated in the Battle of Worcester.

It runs from Worcester via Bristol and Yeovil to Shoreham, West Sussex, and is an approximation of the original route using available public rights of way, having been radically changed in the centuries by enclosure, mining, urbanisation and the building of roads, canals and railways.

This particular stretch runs on a well-maintained gravelly path through the woods.
Please cycle respectfully sharing the path with ramblers and walkers.
