힐더샴 주변 최고의 그래블 라이딩 코스

Wide clear path, smooth and even. Really nice gravel ride.

An enchanting woodland section with trees arching over the gravel path

Year round

Great greenlane/byeway

Sept 2024. Dry but serious ruts and deep pot holes some 5ft across and 2 ft deep. In places there is only 1 narrow route along the ridge between pot holes and deep ruts. Some nice climbs as well so this is a challenging ride but satisfying if you can do it - it is not a fast run. Suitable for experienced track riders do not attempt on road tyres. Also if its been raining it will be very wet with deep puddles as the pot holes fill with water. The ridge route will become too slippery to navigate and a serious pile up and bike damage could result. However, there are other stretches which will be ridable even after rain so if you use caution and walk round the treacherous parts you should be OK. 1st time I rode this stretch in early winter starting at the North end, the pot holes were full of water and after slipping and sliding around a bit even when walking I turned round and went back to the other track to the North Green Croft Lane which is rideable all year.

26 Aug 24. Still ok to ride. Some parts at West end bit overgrown but stinging nettles but not to bad. Track is well drained, no pot holes or ruts so good gravel track. Its a bit loose in places with some small stoney lumps on surface bit ok if you keep your attention on track. Ford is dry.

August 2024 - dry as a bone

Long gravel byway heading North is generally a gentle uphill run. good surface gets a bit over grown in late summer with brambles but a wide track so avoidable. Popular with horse riders so be prepared to stop and get out of the way (thay are bigger and not as placid as our bikes :)) Very good ride.
