チャートサットン周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

素晴らしい景色ですが、テクニカルなライドで、Pilgrim Wayの路面は整備されていません。しかし、乾燥した日であれば、最低35mmタイヤのグラベルバイクで走行可能です。40mm以上がより適切でしょう。雨の日は避けるべきです。

As said in a previous post, there are section of this route that are stunning as it runs along the ridges of various valleys on it's way to Winchester and beyond on the section I did from Canterbury to Guildford many parts were incredibly muddy and very hard to traverse even on a gravel bike.

The Dirty habbit at the foot of the climb provides refreshing hill accompaniments

One of my favourite climbs in the area (alongside Coldblow Land further west). From corner of Pilgrims Way it is 1km to the top. Becomes prgressivley steeper, the final ramp is around 20% gradient.

Brutal, brutal climb. Took the life out of me once you're 20%+. To make things worse, if you're wanting to stop, its difficult to do so as cars are coming up and down the road. I didn't stop but this isn't for the weak. However, it's largely 5-7 miles of descending afterwards and the climb is only extremely difficult for a short period.

Describing Sissinghurst Castle and Garden is not easy. Words like historical, poetic, iconic, beautiful, colorful, breathtaking almost come close to reality. It is a sanctuary dedicated to beauty. Vita Sackville-West and Harold Nicolson fell in love with Sissinghurst Castle and created a now world-famous garden in a very unique way.

Anyone who wants to walk the "Pilgrim's Way" with Canterbury Cathedral as their destination, not just as a long-distance hiking trail for pleasure (whether on foot or the faster option by bike), but also consciously follow the medieval tradition as a pilgrim, may find some inspiration on this website =>> https://www.pilgrimways.org.uk/the-pilgrims-way-winchester-southwark-to-canterbury
