    Tips

    Mountain biking

    The Ridgeway is an awesome long distance cycle route - here's one of the best sections of white, chalky double and singletrack which is perfect for mountain bikes and gravel bikes. Once on the Ridgeway, the terrain is gently undulating and you'll get some of the most incredible views!

    Some people say it's boring, but I really enjoyed the ridgeway, even with a headwind! Great views and a fantastic cafe by the bridge in Goring at the end.
