On this walk we visit 2 Bristol parks, 2 cemeteries, 2 allotments sites, Royate Hill nature reserve and Troopers Hill.

We will stop for a short break so please bring drink and snack. 

Some road walking, some muddy sections. No stiles and the hills are gentle. 

Possibility of a drink at the cafe in St George Park at the end, if it is open.

Meet at the main gates of St George Park BS5 7AA, junction of Church Road and Chalks Road. Parking: Chalks Road car park - located in St. George’s Park (BS5 9EN) or Derby Street car park, Redfield, - behind the Fire Engine pub (BS5 8AP). Neither of these car parks have any charge or time restrictions on Sundays. Parking in these car parks is not guaranteed, they could be busy and parking on the nearby streets might be difficult. The best bet is to come by bus. Hanham and Kingswood buses stop at St George park. Maybe drive and park near the main road further away and catch the bus for the last bit.
