Land Yeo Wooden Bridge

Take good footwear if it's muddy out! One of the gates nearby towards Nailsea is perched precariously over a steam -- so you don't want to slip.

Stoney Steep Byway

Highlight • Climb

Nice link between Cadbury Camp and Nailsea. Becomes steep, rocky path for some of it. Definitely can be done on a gravel bike, but perhaps would be best done going down rather than up!
