Overview

From Congresbury we walk up through Urchin Wood, then Ball Wood and The Grove before we have a coffee stop at Bracken Hill. Then off to Prestow Wood via Wrington Hill and down to Wrington for lunch at the Church or a beer in the pub. Then it’s a nice level walk along the 2 Rivers Way back to Congresbury.

Coffee and lunch stops.

Less than 5 stiles.
