グレートオークリーシビルパリッシュのおすすめMTBライド

The drop comes heading westbound from Great Holland, down into the valley of the Holland Brook. Only short but quick.

The route is unmade - gravel and patches of sand - for a lot of the distance. Just about passable on a road bike but not ideal and really more suited for gravel tyres.

Tucked away down on the promenade just beyond the no-cycling sign. Access via the boat slip ramp. You need to know it's there as you won't go past it otherwise.

Harbour side view of the bay and over onto Dedham Vale (Constable country). Just down the street there are plenty of coffee shops and pubs for refreshments.

Statue of private Herbert George Columbine, who was awarded the Victoria Cross for bravery in WWI

Good bridleway leading into Plough Corner . A nice alternative to the busier roads nearby

Early forms of the lighthouse (roughly 1860s) that would have guided ships in Harwich. Restored in the 1980s they're now a local highlight and well worth stopping off at the explore.

This walk is wheelchair and pushchair friendly. Nice pleasant walk for children with plenty of toilets along the route. Safe dirt road runs parallel for those on bikes. Finishes with a small sand beach beside a cafe with a limited menu. Plenty of picnic spots
