Overview

Starting from the Car Park in Leigh Woods BS8 3QB.  This is a 5 mile walk through shaded woods.  It is a relatively flat walk, except for one hill near the end of the trail, returning to the car park. This we will take slow and steady.

We will be picking up the River Avon path, taking us below the Clifton Suspension Bridge, and also visiting Leigh Park Manor.   

After the walk we can go to the Riverside Garden Centre, Clift House Road, Southville, BS3 1RX for refreshments.
