웰스‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

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.

Beautiful forest rather atypical for this area and safe in summer and nice place to walk and relax.

This hill is a wonderful elevation and was certainly carefully chosen as a final resting place.

Take a break here before the climb

This is the easy part.

Nice place for a short visit driving to Devon
