Overview

 A West Wilts Challenge Walk higher, longer, faster
A real challenge this one!  Join us for part or all of this newly created circuit.  A delightful walk around some of the best bits of the edges of Bath, including Southstoke, Midford, Monkton Combe, Bathampton, Batheaston, Solsbury Hill, Wooley, Newbridge, Englishcombe.  Gorgeous countryside if you can catch your breath and enjoy it!
We start from Odd Down Park and Ride.  Parking there is £2.50 per day according to their website.  We will be keeping a reasonable, but not silly pace and hope to finish the walk within 8/9 hours.  If you are flagging, you can easily get to the centre of town and catch a bus back to the Park and Ride.  I can send an electronic copy of the route if you want to have a look.
Provisions and water will need to be generous, and be prepared for usual English Summer weather (i.e. very variable)  I'm not sure we will pass a cafe.
Should be a memorable event!
