Symonds Yat Forest Path

Highlight • Forest

If descending with bags or dodgy brakes I would go slow. This road is beautiful but north of the Yat Rock bridge is very narrow and quite steep in spots. …

Saracens Head Inn

Highlight • Rest Area

Excellent pub with rooms and great food.

It's a stunning location on the east bank of the River Wye, nestled at the point where the river meets a steep wooded gorge.

Scenic river with a hand pulled passenger ferry across to the other side (not sure if you can take bikes on it). Cafes and pubs to sit and enjoy the view and a campsite on the road leading down.
