Overview

Down to Elbow, via Turleigh, getting good views across the Limpley Stoke Valley on the lower section. We then keep on the Winsley side of the K & A Canal to Murhill Wharf, with its interesting industrial remnants before climbing the inclined plane up to the quarries above, finally emerging at Avon Park. Thereafter, it’s Conkwell, a very pretty little hamlet, and woods and fields past Haugh and Hartley farms back to the cars.  One steep hill.  Bring snack.
