Bigsweir Bridge

Highlight • Historical Site

This is another elegant cast-iron road bridge that has been built over the river Wye. It was constructed in 1827 and is another grade 2 listed building.

Tip by

13.2 km

A solid 2.4km climb from The Boat Inn at Redbrook up towards Penalt. A continuous 10% with occasional steeper pitches 12/15 %. If continuing beyond Penalt tired legs will welcome the lesser 5% gradient of The Craig Road for the next kilometer.
Lone Lane is smooth tarmac. No problems.

Whitecliff Climb View

Highlight • Climb

Single width lane climb up from Whitecliff from the Coleford/Newland Road. Around 1 mile long and a steady 6% gradient with a rewarding view at the end far reaching to the Brecon Beacons, also a great to take in sunset/ rise.
