Forest Path in Blackdown Hills National Landscape

Highlight (Segment) • Forest

After heading uphill (north to south) it's largely big stones which are heavily bedded into the ground, with some loose gravel, dirt etc. At the top here, it's a short stretch before finding more compact gravel. A bit bumpy in places, but nothing too technical.

You can’t go wrong for nice MTB tracks up here. Amazing views. Mostly stoney tracks so can be ridden in all weather. And part of the Herepath Loop
