Plymbridge Woods Family Cycle Trail

Have fun with the family on this cycle ride which follows the route of an old Great Western Railway track. From the edge of Plymouth, you plunge straight into glorious oak woodland before emerging out into open countryside.

The trail leads you past dramatic industrial remains, including towering quarry faces, and across breathtaking viaducts. 

You’ll get the chance for close-up views of nesting wild peregrines (in season) and a taste of fresh moorland air all year round.
