Evesham to Honeybourne

Click for full-size map

This is a very easy six-mile ride through the market gardens of Worcestershire, famous for their produce.

Leave Evesham on the old Badsey Lane. This crosses the A46 bypass on the level - take care. There is a special refuge for cyclists between the two lanes. Continue into the attractive village of Badsey, then head south.

As you head towards Broadway, a signposted bridleway will take you north. This has a good gravel surface. Road cyclists - if you have thin tyres, you may prefer to divert on the B road via Bretforton. The approach to Honeybourne passes the historic Thatched Tavern.

Travelling by train
