アッシュコームでののおすすめグラベルライド

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

Fast and boggy marshland suitable for gravel gravad MTB. This section is also part of the East Devon Trail

Nice flat cycle path. But gets VERY busy with 2 wheeled, 2 legged and 4 legged visitors in the summer months. Watch how you go.

Very muddy and slippy at the moment, as to be expected with all the rain we've had. Had to carry bike across stream for a few feet as too big a gap to jump.

The bridleway has now been resurfaced with tarmac, so can be ridden on any type of bike. A really good and quiet link from the Exe Estuary trail up towards Woodbury village and the common beyond.

Haldon Forest Park opened the new start to the red trail in mid December 2023 and it's fantastic. It's packed gravel with berms at the start, then splits in two. Take the right 'short cut' to cut the entire red in two (or take it to ride back to the start and do the new section again) or stay left to carry on along the new bit and then get onto the usual red. This new section is nowhere near as challenging as the main red, but it's super fast and fun. As it spits you out on the fire track after a short distance, it's great for kids too, who can have a great time on this punchy gravel but bail before the red gets hairy. The way it's set up means it's easy to only do this bit, ride back to the start, and do it again and again.

Great trail for the whole family. Can relax and cruise or head down and pick up some speed. The full trail is about 7 miles so tough for little ones
