Part of the appeal of Ruthern Valley is its proximity to the Camel Trail (01872 327310), a disused railway track running 16 miles from Wadebridge to Padstow. It’s a great route for walking or cycling. Hire bikes at Bridge Bike Hire, Wadebridge (01208 813050); which has children’s bikes, bike seats and trailer bikes. There’s a riding stable at St Breward (01208 851500). The Camel Cycle Trail - a level 4 minute ride from the site, is particularly of note, while the more adventurous can try the forestry (Grogley Woods), which has a huge downhill biking track.
