This place is open every day, all year round. We stopped for an ice lolly on a beautiful sunny day and admired the reservoir and ducks.

Alport Castles

Highlight • Viewpoint

No ruins to see but a nice spot to stop for a Brew and a bite

Tip by

10.7 km

This is always a challenge to ride up, especially when it comes towards the end of a ride! It's not technical, or even that steep; it's just long. Still, on the upside there are always plenty of sheep for company.
