- CHEDDAR GORGE a colossal slash carved through the Mendip Hills by prehistoric rivers, is a landscape that inspires awe. This corner of Somerset is a paradise for those who crave a blend of subterranean adventures, breathtaking vistas, and a rich historical tapestry.
Descent into the depths of Gough's Cave on a guided tour and witness the majesty of stalagmites and stalactites sculpted by time. Learn how the unique cave environment contributes to the maturation of the world-famous Cheddar cheese, and stand where Cheddar Man, Britain's oldest complete human skeleton, was unearthed in 1903.
For panoramic vistas across the gorge, conquer the 274 steps of Jacob's Ladder. As you ascend, breathe in the fresh air and take in the breathtaking expanse of the Mendip Hills and the Somerset Levels, a vast wetland teeming with life. Rest stops along the way provide opportunities to admire the ever-changing scenery. Feeling even more adventurous? Lace up your boots and embark on the challenging yet rewarding 3-mile cliff-top walk around the gorge's rim. Immerse yourself in the fresh air, soak up the panoramic views, and keep an eye out for the diverse wildlife that calls this ecosystem home. If you're short on time, head to Pulpit Rock lookout point for a stunning vista before returning down the ladder.
Unravel the mysteries of the past at the Museum of Prehistory. Explore archaeological finds unearthed in the Cheddar area and delve into the captivating story of how our ancestors lived thousands of years ago. The museum's fascinating artifacts and exhibits bring the prehistoric era to life.
After your adventures in the gorge, explore the charming village of Cheddar. Sample the world-famous cheese directly from its source at a local cheesemaker. Browse unique shops and indulge in a well-deserved meal at a cozy pub or restaurant.
Cheddar Gorge offers a true escape for nature enthusiasts, history buffs, and anyone seeking an adventure. Immerse yourself in the dramatic scenery, delve into the secrets of the past, and create lasting memories in this captivating natural wonder.

Wow! Thanks Neil. I really enjoyed your coverage of the beautiful Cheddar Gorge. Especially as you got deeper into the gorge
it became more and more enjoyable for me. Green is my favourite colour in all its hues, and the way the greenery enhanced
those majestic rocky outcrops was stunning. Also, the chatter of the birds complimented the ideal surroundings. Marvelous!
GOOD video. a zomerset lad is me.🙂 Come in the winter time. No one about except rock climbers.
Sounds like a plan!
I love Somerset - the band October Drift are from there!
I went to Cheddar Gorge and Wookey Hole on a coach trip many years ago so it's been lovely to see this. Thank you very much.
Thank you very much!
Long time since we were last there, truly spectacular scenery, thanks Neil. 👍

🇬🇧🎇🎆🎇🇬🇧
Very unique and beautiful place. Thanks for taking us there.
Thank you too
I’ve been to Cheddar many many times. It’s 30 miles away from me. It is best to start walking from the top of the gorge and not start at the bottom. It would save one’s legs. I’ve been in the caves, up Jacob’s ladder and the museum. Nice video.
I walk both ways as even if I start at the top and walk down I’d still have to walk back up to my car 🤣
Great video beautiful and so many memories of childhood holidays
WOW WHAT A FANTASTIC PLACE, THANK YOU FOR TAKING US THERE.
Thank you 🙏
A vary good video of CHEDDAR GORGE👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Hi Neil, very nice enjoyable walk up to the beginnings of the Cheddar Gorge, but I might be a little biased as I live just 10mins away between Cheddar and Wells on the side of the Mendips, so get to go here quite regularly. You should have carried on further to then see the more majestic parts of the gorge. At almost 400ft deep and about three miles long, Cheddar Gorge is England’s largest gorge, with its weathered crags, sheer cliff faces, it's a dramatic natural sight to take in along the way (as someone suggested, park at the top and walk down the gorge, but of course you'll have to get back to the top). They are upgrading the walking routes and say it should be finished by summer 2025 which now has good pathways.
Just subscribed to your channel, so will now take a look at what other delights you've filmed, I just watched the Lands end video, very nice, keep up the great work and thankyou for sharing 😊
Greetings from malta ❤ marvellous video thanks a million

I used to go caving back in the early 80s in cheddar gorge .
It has become so commercial now , beyond what it was .
I drove through there a couple of summers ago , and thought its ruined , too many tourists , and tacky shops for me . It was heaving .People all over the road .
I love the sign ☢️ for falling rocks....NO 😳. Never been there. You picked a quiet 🤫 day. Yeah looks alright. Happy you weren't knocked down 🚗 👍
❤️❤️❤️

Cheddar George was a cartoon character in "The Nibblers" a fictional story about mice in The Beano comic. Also Enor Mouse.
