View of the Pinnacles, Cheddar Gorge

Highlight • Viewpoint

Head around the horseshoe bend and walk up the side of the cliff. A short scramble up the egde of the cliff leads to the best views of the gorge in the entire valley!

Cheddar Gorge Climb

Highlight • Viewpoint

Not as hard or as busy as I thought it would be... and I went on a sunny Saturday in May! The bottom is tourist heaven or hell depending on your point of view, it gets quieter when you get to the serious stuff and the top shallower section (which is lovely) is very tranquil in comparison. There's only one steep but fairly short section... 20% max, the rest is around 10% and the top only around 5%... it's a joy... go on you'll love it!

Cheddar Gorge Road Climb

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

One of the top 100 road climbs in the UK nestled in some awe-inspiring cliffs. This climb isn't as mean as you've been led to think and it's a wonderful way to enjoy the view.

Farm Shop and Restaurant

Highlight • Restaurant

Serve a very good English breakfast at the restaurant. Useful if you don't want to cook your own. Was busy when I called in on Sunday a.m. in August - I had to wait but was well looked after and the food was worth it!
