チャートリッジでののおすすめグラベルライド

Stop at No2 Pound Street (adjacent to the mini roundabout up the hill) Their main business is a delicatessen specialising in cheese and wine ... but you can grab a tea/cofffee with cake or a toastie, Sit outside or in depending on the weather! Highly recommended. If you've room in your saddlebag, grab a bottle of wine, with some excellent cheese, having taken note of the expert advice from the staff!

Great village cafe.

Final part of the route is quite narrow and plants have overgrown further narrowing the path

Ashridge Estate is a large area of ancient trees, chalk downland and meadows in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It's been managed by the National Trust since 1926.

I like to make my way to the nearby Monument Cafe for some tea and cake, or a venison burger. All at reasonable prices. Beautiful scenery for miles around 🚴🏼‍♂️

This is a great single track that goes up through Pond Wood, past Longdown Farm, and onwards into Pulpit Wood. It can be muddy in bad weather. It is an established trail though and forms part of the Icknield Way Trail, so beware of hikers and other path users.

This path overlooking a valley was rideable on a gravel bike in peak-summer, even while it had been drizzling for the last hour.

On a gravel bike, one packed for a multi-day exploration of the Icknield Way, this was one of the more challenging, slow-going segments due to the narrowness and roots.
