Fabulous views
The bridleways on the hilltops can be narrow and sometimes pot holed, but for a gentle ride with breath taking views is a stunning location.
Get hold of an Ordnance Survey Explorer 140 map, for a detailed look at the myriad of bridleways and restricted byways you can use.
Lydeard Hill and Staple Plain have car parks that are large enough for a horse box if you are travelling.
If you come across any paths that are blocked or unusable please let us know on 01823 451884
