Strawberry Line Tunnel

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The Strawberry Line is a traffic-free trail between Yatton and Cheddar. The gravel path follows the route of a former railway line that once carried delicious cargos of strawberries from Cheddar. The line was well usd for nearly a century until its closure in 1965.

Level and easygoing, the trail is suitable for all ages and abilities. It winds through some very pretty Somerset countryside, too.

Thatchers Cider Mill

Highlight • Structure

Fine gravel path right through the Thatchers orchard where they turn squillions of apples into yummy cider. Good on Thatchers for allowing so much right of way through and around the factory (brewery? cidery?) to link the Strawberry line through Sandford.

The Strawberry Line

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Nice traffic free route with lots of places to stop for refreshments along the way. Recommend the bakery at Winscombe.
Sadly, the numerous bike gates along the route are a pain if you're on a mountain/hybrid bike as they are too narrow.

Festival Way

Highlight • Cycleway

Lovely, traffic-free way to connect Long Ashton to Backwell and it's endless lanes.

Ashton Road Gatehouse, Ashton Court Estate

Highlight • Monument

Check the closing time displayed ( 30m into the park) as you enter as these change with the season due to daylight.

Ashton Court Greenway

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Brilliant new bit of cyclepath across Ashton Court from the university buildings to the wide gravel track up to the gate at the southern end. Very wide and easy gravel, although can get busy with both cyclists, walkers and dogs so take it easy.

Look out for the parallel little singletrack in the trees if that's more your bag.

Hobbs Lane

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Very useful bike lane alternative to the A38 and Barrow Street rat run. But...Summer = overgrown and nettles. Winter = muddy and slippery. Take particular care as you approach the end of the lane heading north - as it gets a bit steeper, and slippy.
