Cotswolds 2026

These are multi-distance MTB/Gravel routes that have been created with the purpose of linking the many fun descents this area offers..

On the original ‘200’, there are incredibly over TWENTY FIVE significant downhill sections on this route which of course means a lot of uphill too!

Starting in the city of Bath, the routes head north into the stunning Cotswolds AONB, which as many off-road bikers know, is such a great area to ride. The 200 & 300 versions cover the full length of the Cotswolds area there and back. These aren’t regular ‘there n back’ routes though – the return legs are on entirely different routes.

Riding through Somerset, Wiltshire, Gloucestershire, Worcestershire, Warwickshire and back again, the many highlights will include some of the best off-road biking trails found in England.

Not only is the riding superb, the views from the Cotswolds escarpment are fantastic too – especially looking west across the Severn valley towards the Black Mountains and the Malvern Hills.
