Chard Reservoir Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural

Rest the bike up and take in the views across the reservoir, great for all the family with a walk path into the local nature reserve. No cafe or shop, so make sure you take your own food/drinks/fuel!

Chard Reservoir

Highlight • Natural

Chard Reservoir is no longer used as a commercial reservoir but is managed as a nature reserve. A lovely, peaceful spot to stop and watch the water birds.

Stop Line Way – NCR 33 Shared Path

Highlight • Trail

My favourite section of the stopline way, an easy chilled ride, particularly stunning in the summer but monumentally busy exactly when you think it would be.
