    Hiking

    This is one of two hand pulled ferries in the Symonds Yat area. The other one is just upstream from here and not that far away. The ferry here at the Saracen's Head crossing is iconic and steeped in local history and makes for a lovely cheap outing across the river.

    The crossing costs 2 pounds, dogs are allowed.

    Hiking

    Looks a fun way to get across the river, unfortunately it wasn't running at the times we were there so we couldn't experience it.
