이스트 브렌트 주변 최고의 그래블 라이딩 코스

Great view and well worth the slightly steep muddy ascent.

This is one seriously tough climb. Mixed surfaces (grass, rocks, gravel, mud) but nothing too tricky in dry conditions. A few very steep sections, and a couple of badly positioned gates (on the steep sections!), make this very challenging indeed. One of those climbs where the combo of gradient and terrain made it impossible to change position on the bike, hence it was a bit of a back breaker. The views to the south and west from the top are fantastic.

A super cool train sculpture that is on The Strawberry Line, which is a super cool cycleway in itself.

This is a really enjoyable ride but the bike gates are a pain with straight handlebars.

Some parts are a bit bumpy but most of it is quite good make

Black Down is the highest hill in the Mendips with Beacon Batch the highest spot point at 1,066 feet (325 m). There are a good set of bridleways in the area, many with gravelly surfaces suitable for gravel or touring bikes. The summit ridge path is particularly good, with amazing views of the Mendips and north towards Bristol.

The Strawberry Line starts in Yatton. There is a small cafe here and you can also rent bikes.

Great way to come off the Mendips. Rocky and rooty in spots but nothing difficult. Good way to go down but not sure about up.

Nice traffic free route with lots of places to stop for refreshments along the way. Recommend the bakery at Winscombe. Sadly, the numerous bike gates along the route are a pain if you're on a mountain/hybrid bike as they are too narrow.

Fantastic alternative route if you want to keep away from busy roads.

Traffic free gravel route.

A great cycle path

Small cafe the almshouse on the corner is good and the lamb pub across the road looks popular both have seating outside or in

I understand now the tunnel is lit.

Moor Bridge crossing the River Yeo.

Although this section is on the road it's still fun on a mountain bike. The surface is good and it's a classic road bike climb so expect to get overtaken by skinny tyres and lots of cars, but the scenery is well worth the effort. Look out for birds of prey, goats and rock climbers on some of the tough sport or trad test pieces. There are plenty of off-road trails you can use to get up or down the gorge from Cheddar to the top so you only need to ride this in one direction.

Rut update: no ruts! It's been cleared and graded a bit with new gates too and bottom. I miss the ruts already

The Cheddar Gorge climb truly is epic. With towing cliffs, feral goats hopping above and ethereal light, it’s wonderful. As others have said, it’s not as hard as you might expect but does last a while. If you’re on a gravel or hybrid bike, you can continue along a gravel trail just before the road turns to national speed limit, which is exceptionally beautiful and continues right to the very tip of the gorge.
