    Cleeve Common Tramper Trail and Hire

    Here on Cleeve Common, with the help of local people with lived-experience of using wheels, we have developed at Tramper Trail. This is a 2 mile long ‘tadpole’ shaped route which takes in several view points. It can be shortened very easily into a shorter circle. The route has been fully risk assessed and audited. […]

Cleeve Common is Gloucestershire’s largest common, with an area of over 400 hectares (1000 acres).

It is a nationally important resource, as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) for its geology, habitats and botany and it also contains a wealth of archaeological interest, including three Scheduled Monuments.

The Common and its surroundings lie within the Cotswolds National Landscape.

Cleeve Common is a haven for plants, insects, reptiles, birds and mammals that thrive on the agriculturally unimproved limestone grassland, a habitat that has dwindled alarmingly in recent decades. Prior to 1935, such grassland accounted for over 40% of the Cotswolds: today the figure is only 1.5%. Cleeve Common therefore represents a major stronghold for this threatened habitat.

The landscape of the Common is typical of the Cotswolds in general with an escarpment, hilltop and dip slope. The scarp slope, on the front of the Common, is the most accessible while the hilltop is wide open grassland used extensively for recreation (including the golf course).

Here on Cleeve Common, with the help of local people with lived-experience of using wheels, we have developed at Tramper Trail. This is a 2 mile long ‘tadpole’ shaped route which takes in several view points. It can be shortened very easily into a shorter circle. The route has been fully risk assessed and audited.
