Two Tunnels Greenway

Highlight • Structure

Fantastic bike path going through the famous two tunnels. The longest bike path tunnel in the UK. Although it is lit the lighting is poor so lights are highly recommended to avoid collisions. Great spot for some on ride karaoke if you love the sound of your own voice (echos).

Rainbow Wood

Forest

Forest Path in The Cotswolds National Landscape

After Midford this quickly becomes hard packed gravel. Safe and relatively comfortable to ride on any road bike. Several gates to pass through, watch out for craters on the path.

Warmley Waiting Room Cafe

Highlight • Rest Area

Perhaps the quaintest little coffee stop in the whole of England. This sweet little cafe is placed inside an old railway station along the Bristol & Bath Railway path. There is plenty of outdoor seating and places to rest your bikes. They also make a mean bacon butty and have a ice-cream truck in summer.
