The highest northerly point on the Quantock Hills, the trig point and summit of Beacon Hill is a great viewpoint and run target. It stands at 310m and looks down over Bridgewater Bay and the Kilve coast. The running along the trails on the Quantock ridge is brilliant and although sometimes wet underfoot it's always good. You can run a long loop out to Wills Neck or further or link Beacon Hill with a coastal loop past Kilve.

Fabulous views both east and west along the coastline and across the Bristol Channel to Wales. The trig point is at 310m, the highest northerly point on the Quantock Hills.

Amazing views to stop and observe

The Quantock Hills are home to many gorgeous villages and Holford is a perfect example. Inhabited since the Iron Age, the village feels like is hasn't changed in hundreds of years. Thatched cottages, a huge water wheel and a beautiful church all conspire to make Holford postcard-perfect. On the outskirts of the village is Alfoxton hotel (no longer a hotel) where Wordsworth lived temporarily. The Plough Inn, at the northern end of the village, is ideal for lunch.

One of the most majestic trails in the Quantocks, the Drove is a medieval track that travels along the top of the hills and forms an avenue with trees on both sides. Packed earth and rocky sections provide excellent hiking and cycling, and the Drove is wide although uneven throughout. There are many points along the Drove's route where you can enjoy simply phenomenal views across the lower Somerset landscape. Highland cattle and sheep also graze the fields beside it, so don't be surprised if you peer over a gate and find a furry face looking back at you.

Fab fireroad tracks perfect for MTB, CX or gravel bikes.

Beautiful view out over the water and surrounding hill side. Plenty of animals around, keep your eyes open for sheep and wild horses.

A lovely combe that feels forgotten in time! Beautiful ancient woodland and streams to splash in.

Standing at 951 feet (290m), Bicknoller Post is a marker for this hill summit, one of the many in the Quantocks Hill Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It gets its name from the village of Bicknoller to the West edge of the Quantocks. Up on the tops here, you will get to experience some incredible views over the moorland, woodland and towards the coastline.

Holford Combe is one of those very rare places in the UK that's just as much fun up as down. Actually, I'm not sure that such a place exists - and it's a complete blast heading down, as those many, many stream crossings will attest - but it's of a sufficient gradient that you gain quite a lot of height quite quickly, and those self-same stream crossings that are such fun going downhill serve to distract your attention from how hard you're working. And it's all in gorgeous surroundings, too!

A last blast back to the car park takes you down one of the Quantocks' many combes or wooded valleys. It's along the path of an old river and is littered with rocks and roots and water splashes, making for a memorable end for those who love sublime singletrack!
