“The Mendip is synonymous with sticky mud and slippery limestone but any criticism you hear of trail conditions belie the variety of riding available. It’s fair to say that it’s best to visit during a dry spell so yes, think twice about visiting if it’s been especially wet recently. Otherwise, come and enjoy the extensive network of hills, bridleways, singletrack and country roads – ideal for XC enthusiasts who don’t mind getting stuck-in. The focus is the twee moorland bridleways of Black Down near Burrington Combe, extending into Rowberrow Wood with its steep and secret singletrack. Via linking lanes and shared-use paths, good trails extend south to Cheddar and west toward Bleadon.”
