A comfortable and useful cycleway that connects Marlborough to Swindon for the most.
Despite to the gravel makeup, the surface is so smooth that it's a pleasure to ride even a 23mm tire sized road bike.

Quiet shared use cycle lane that runs parallel to the main A-road. Reasonable surface - the typical fine grit type stuff, but should be suitable for most bikes.

This mixed use path, part of Sustrans NCN Route 482, follows the disused Chiseldon & Marlborough Railway.The path is almost entirely well-maintained gravel and mostly flat, with some sharp ups and downs at entry/exit points. When dry, it can be easily ridden on a road or city bike (some skills required), but if muddy and wet a Gravel bike or MTB is recommended.Traction is overall very good, but be careful on bends with loose gravel.On a nice, sunny day this is a great trail away from traffic which will put a smile on your face!Always be courteous to other path users, giving ample room to pedestrians and other cyclists.
