Driving west down the Cheddar Gorge to the car park. We then took the National Trust trail walk around the gorge which is 5.5k. It took us exactly 3hrs to complete the walk starting from the north side path opposite ‘Cafe Gorge’. The path descends to enable you to cross the road to then walk up along the south side, where you can exit via the Jacob’s Ladder.
Both sides of the gorge offer different scenery and we highly recommend you do the complete walk.
