    Cycling

    A relief after the steep road climb out of Withypool! Don't take the lower track that Komoot shows - it's worth joining from 50m higher up the road. Starts with a chunky singletrack section (rideable on a gravel bike), followed by a long stretch of open gravel tracks which take you up to the Porchester's Post and some great views. If riding this segment from North to South, it's a pleasant change after the steep, chunky riding on Exmoor.
