and generally undulating to Bicknoller, with a few short sharp descents
and climbs in and out of small combes. Much of this section also
follows a route signed the Quantock Greenway.
Nether Stowey to Bicknoller
Generally level walking to Monksilver, then a strenuous one mile
climb up Bird's Hill that can be muddy. Thereafter, downhill to
Sticklepath followed by a fairly level walk above the Roadwater
Valley to Roadwater village
Bicknoller to Roadwater
A strenuous section with two major climbs. From Roadwater a long climb through Langridge Woods onto farmland, followed by a downhill section to Luxborough. Another long climb pst Newcombe Farm to the highest point on the route at Lype Hill and then gently down hill to Wheddon Cross.
Roadwater to Wheddon Cross
Initially down hill through woods with a tricky steep descent into
Mansley Combe, then a steep climb onto open moorland. Generally
fairly level walking across the moor apart from one short sharp
descent and climb in and out of Hanny Combe. From Webber's Post
it is down hill for 2.5 miles to Porlock where the route ends at
the Visitor Centre.
