Swettenham (6.59 miles 10.54 km ) Print
A lovely ride on tracks and bridleways plus a few quiet roads. Plus the bonus of a start at the popular Swettenham Arms. The Swettenham Arms now has a horse rail with tie points/water/mounting block if you did want to stop for a drink or food, with its car park big enough for pleasure ride parking.
