Entering from North Stoke keep your eyes peeled for a green bridle way sign which is easy to miss. It quickly gets steep and rocky with running water even during warmer summer spells, Strava segment is called PIPLEY BOTTOM ROCKY HORROR which is a fair description. Very technical descent and breaking on loose rocks is sketchy. I was on xc hardtail but defo hike a bike on a gravel rig. The ascent following is another hike a bike rooty and muddy. Worth a try to test out your technical skills on the down and the up.

Pretty nasty hump up into Carlingcott either East or west. Otherwise one of the highlights of the area. From the west it's pretty rough and steep and from the east it's more drawn out and smoother.

Fantastic views of the Clifton Suspension Bridge from the river path.

Compact gravel all the way

Maybe a really good mountain biker could do it but not rideable on a gravel bike.

The river Avon trail connects Bristol and Pill and is a lovely alternative to the road cycleway. It can get a bit busy on weekends during the afternoons

From West to East, starts as quite nice field edge singletrack (lots of nettles in summer though) before degenerating into a deeper rocky gully and stream. Good fun on MTB, bit of a bone shaker on CX/gravel.

A good cycle path for all but the skinniest of wheels and the right line has to be chosen in places. It's compacted gravel and dirt, so could get a bit boggy during or after wet weather. Lots of other users to be mindful of as well. There's some great views of the river, the cliffs and Clifton Suspension Bridge of course!

It’s hike-a-bike if you’re not on an MTB

Nice gravelly path with options going up into Leigh Woods. Gets very wet at times, and sometimes the river comes up over the path! Lots of dog walkers and families at weekends so dont go mad!

Basically riding down a river. Recommended as a descent (north to south) unless you like pushing your bike

Picturesque quiet lanes following the valley.

Beautiful view of the gorge & Clifton suspension bridge

Nice smooth road with views down the Avon Gorge

Nice road for laps, good training loop

Smooth roads around the downs, great for some time trial training or just a couple of chill laps.

The nice smooth road around the Clifton Downs. Features views over the Avon Gorge plus surrrounds a lovely public green space.

Really rough Byway, big rocks and when it rains it becomes a river.
