모튼 발렌스 주변 최고의 그래블 라이딩 코스

good pub, nice food and nice people

What a gem this place is. Homemade food, great staff, a warm welcome and very popular with lovely views of the canal

This is a great section of canal. We were a team of six cyclists doing the LEJOG but it still wasn't too busy. Nice ambience along the canal and through the dock area.

We were a team of six doing the LEJOG and this was a great stop for us. Very bike friendly with great food.

Get there whenever you see the boats leaving the docks!

This bridge is located along the Gloucester and Sharpness Canal and connects the Purton area to the wider canal system. It is a swing bridge with a control room operated by a keeper to manage its movements. The Purton site also features a historic boat graveyard, where old ship hulls were used to reinforce the canal embankment,

well worth a stop to refuel

while mostly rideable, the bit between Purton and Slimbridge can be a bit rough and ready and I struggled on my road bike, but then I was a bit silly taking it here in the first place.

Can get busy. Nice and quiet mid week in February.

"Splatt Bridge" is one of eighteen bridges on the Gloucester & Sharpness Canal. Some of the bridges have classically styled keeper's cottages with Greek columns and pediment.

A scenic stretch of the ride alongside the River Severn. A great place to spot vast flocks of birds over the water.

Nice location to unwind

Nice stop for a coffee next to the canal

Easily manageable on a rugged bike in winter and just about any bike when it's dry.

Road too small to share between cyclist and pedestrians

Awesome little wooden cabin cafe - with an outside shack for coffee, snacks & ice cream 🍨- plus a main cafe which does full sit down meals. Great for brunch!
