Overview

We hope you can join us for the first walk of 2026. There are some steep climbs and steps on the way up to the Folly where we will have a breather before walking through the nature reserve and returning to Bathford along a country lane with good views. The walk can be muddy so please wear appropriate footwear and bring walking poles if you use them. We will have a short drinks stop so please bring a drink. The Crown at Bathford is a short drive from the end of the walk if anyone wants a drink after the walks. Please note that there is a service at the church at 10.00 am so leave ample time for parking.
