トラッシャムでののおすすめグラベルライド

Wray Valley Trailは、Mortonhampsteadへの緩やかな登りと、Boveyへの快適で簡単な下りです...ほとんどの場合！道は場所によっては舗装されていますが、主に砂利で、場所によってはかなり粗い砂利です。

アスファルトと砂利道のミックスです。しかし、古い鉄道線路なので、Moretonhampsteadに向かって緩やかな上り坂になっています。

Excellent food and some lovely ales! Friendly & inviting.

Fabulous Trail! A 7 mile (11km) mainly traffic-free route from Bovey Tracey to Moretonhampstead follows the dismantled railway line through the National Trust Parke Estate and past the beautiful picturesque village of Lustleigh.

Nice bridlepath. Bit rutted in a few places, so no good for a road bike.

The Old Bovey Railway Line, also known as the Bovey Tracey to Moretonhampstead railway, was a branch line in Devon, England, that served the towns of Bovey Tracey and Moretonhampstead. The railway was opened in the mid-19th century, specifically in 1866, to facilitate the transportation of goods and passengers in this rural area. The line played a vital role in the local economy, enabling the transport of agricultural products, minerals, and other goods. It was particularly significant for the granite industry, as the region is known for its granite quarries. The railway line was eventually closed to passenger traffic in the mid-20th century, with the last freight services ceasing in the 1970s. Today, parts of the old railway line have been repurposed as walking and cycling paths, allowing visitors to explore the scenic countryside while enjoying the history of the railway. The route offers a glimpse into the region's rural heritage and is popular with outdoor enthusiasts. If you're interested in railway history or simply enjoy walking in beautiful landscapes, the Old Bovey Railway Line provides a lovely opportunity to connect with both.
