We found it to be the best route to the Gorge, longer but flatter overall !

Excellent food and good value prices. Buddah bowls, jacket potatoes, good coffee, interesting fruit infusions.

Prepare yourself for the coming hill or take a different direction 😁🥵🚵

Blagdon Lake was created by damming the River Yeo in 1898. The project was completed in 1905 and provides drinking water for Bristol and the local area. The lake is also an important wildlife habitat, with lots of different bird and insect species living here.

Blagdon Lake and some of the surrounding wetland and woodland has been designated as a SSSI due to the variety of species which live here. Look out for badgers, fox and Roe deer as well as numerous dragonfly and water birds.

Holt Farm Organic Gardens is a 6.5-acre mix of edible and ornamental garden certified as Organic by the Soil Association. It's owned by Yeo Valley and open to visitors. There is also a café here so it's a great stop on a walk around the lake.

Just a bit of information about the car park which gains access to the SSSI area. It is a decent size rough gravel car park with no facilities. It is also deal for hiking up Beacon Batch.
