콜포드 주변 최고의 그래블 라이딩 코스

Lovely ride - mostly quiet roads and tracks... Bath Arms good place to stop for a coffee. Good lunch in the White Hart after the ride.

Good climb, was across fields but fine today as they’ve been harvested. Might have been tricky earlier in the year

Smooth surface climb at a steady gradient, very nice.

This route is no longer strictly accessible. It goes through a private farm with locked gates and the Stour estate which requires a permit (£10 per person)

Update April 2025 - the craters have now been filled in with hard pack gravel. Very much rideable on a road bike of any tyre size without needing to be too concerned about punctures.

Monkton Combe is a beautiful and charming village just south of Bath. It has a stunning Norman Church, St Michael’s Church, the obligatory public house, and an old-fashioned ‘village lockup,’ where they used to detain the less sober of the village inhabitants. What is most interesting is that the churchyard contains the grave of Harry Patch, the last surviving British soldier who fought in the First World War. It is well worth having a brief stop here.

The tunnel lights were designed so you can see while not disturbing the bats. People using bright lights risk disturbing the bats and blinding other users. While you may feel using lights improves your ability to see and be seen they distract other users making it more difficult to see walkers, dogs etc.

Amazing views of the hills. If your lucky you can see the gliders circling above from the Wing Farm Airfield
