周辺の峡谷・トップ7

High elevation Hill mixed terrain of mud stones, an enjoyable scramble at times.

Ebbor Gorge is a limestone gorge similar but much smaller than Cheddar. It's a fun scramble with a nice circular walk. The car park, managed by the National Trust, is well-placed to start an adventure. There is information about the area and local walks on the notice boards.

Follow this pathway to the start of trail. it's up hill all the way to the top of the gorge. ground is road, pathway, tree roots, mud and rocks. ground is uneven so good boots and possibly poles if you are unsteady on feet

Oh it's constant... it just feels like it won't stop. Good footwear essential. avoid the black looking rocks. they are shiny and slippy by years of being stepped on. stick to the dirt.

This section of the trail from Black Rock Gate up to the southern ridge of Cheddar Gorge is steep and rocky. Very hard work to actually run up, but a good place to practice power walking up. In descent, you need grippy and cushioned shoes that you trust. Lots of fun but a bit scary in the wet.

Take a break here before the climb

This is the easy part.

This might not be so nice, depending on how confident/sure-footed you are, how much it’s rained, or whether you’re going down rather than up!
