High elevation Hill mixed terrain of mud stones, an enjoyable scramble at times.

Great loop walk

Fast

As you roll out of Cheddar village on the B3135, pedalling past the bustling shops and famous cave entrances, the climb begins gently. Soon, leaving the village infrastructure behind, you'll enter the awe-inspiring jaws of the gorge itself. Here, feel the road tilt upwards noticeably, averaging around 4-5% for several kilometres. While not brutally steep overall, you'll encounter sections, particularly around the hairpins in the lower-middle part of the gorge, where the gradient kicks up more firmly, possibly reaching 7-10% momentarily. Absorb the truly spectacular experience of climbing between the towering, ancient limestone cliffs that dwarf you on either side. Be aware you'll likely be sharing this world-famous road with tourist traffic also soaking in the views. As you climb higher, feel the immense walls gradually recede and the gradient ease off, signalling your approach to the top of this iconic Somerset climb.

A great drive through the Gorge, then park in one of the layby's and hike up either side of the Gorge to the top (pretty steep), where you get great views of Cheddar and the surrounding areas. Cheddar itself has a slightly Alpine Village feel to it.

Great location, beautiful views and beautiful nature!

Oh it's constant... it just feels like it won't stop. Good footwear essential. avoid the black looking rocks. they are shiny and slippy by years of being stepped on. stick to the dirt.

Stunning views across the plains of Somerset. can see for absolutely miles on a clear day. Don't be fooled in to thinking it's an easy route I have made. It really isn't. Proper footwear and even poles are recommended. Bring waterproofs as back up shelter, as there are not many places out of the gorge to shelter. Download the route to device also, there is no phone coverage the further in to the gorge you go.
