Overview

A 5-hour walk starting from Southgate car park.

We will first visit the wooded Bishopston Valley and make our way to Kittle.

There will be a short road section to walk before we take the path to the lovely Ilston Church and Valley. This valley can be muddy in wet conditions.

From here we will walk to Three Cliffs Valley with its classical meandering river and then back to Southgate.

Social after walk:

Afterwards, we will go for refreshments to the Southgate Club (which is now open to non-members), 15 Southgate Road, Southgate SA3 2BT.
