We are the Mendip Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
West Mendip Walkers moderate to strenuous 11.5mile circular walk from Holford Bowling Green (TA5 1SA). On leaving the car park the route follows the road via Alfoxton House. It then ascends up to open moor land and continues to Bicknoller Post, Halsway Post and on to Hurley Beacon and then to Dead Woman's Ditch. After this the walk passes through a wooded section to Great Bear and the west flank of Dowsborough Fort before descending to Holford Combe and the car park. Dog friendly always mindful of sheep and ponies grazing on the moorland.
Moorland walking with views over the Bristol Channel and surrounding countryside.
Parking in Holford Bowling Green car park. Walk starts from here.
