The Watkins Way by Bike

Cycling the 106-mile Watkins Way over five days lets you enjoy the glorious views, plentiful historical sites and the challenge of the undulating landscape, without exhausting yourself. The middling pace of pedal power – fast enough to get around but slow enough to see the sights – is perfect for Herefordshire. Or take the challenge up a gear and tackle the route over 3 days. Being one of the most rural parts of the UK, it’s sensible to pack sustenance for the road and plenty of spare inner tubes just in case.
