A fantastic gravel trail across the Avalon marshes. Quiet in the morning but can get busy with walkers on a sunny afternoon. It’s part of national cycle route 3 so cyclists are more than entitled to use it, but bear in mind that it is a shared path and most people come here to enjoy the nature in peace. There are lots of bird watchers and if you come just before dusk you’ll see some amazing starling murmurations. Good surface of fine, hard packed gravel with a few non-threatening potholes.

Shapwick Heath nature reserve, gets pretty busy with walkers and bird watchers. Excellent compacted gravel surface with just a few puddles, and plenty of places to sit on a bench and watch the aerial display.
