This walk is in the past.
An enjoyable and scenic walk around Uphill, Walborough Nature Reserve and Brean Down! This is a linear walk and we will be taking the bus back.
Meet at 09.45 at The Ship Inn. If you have a car please park on the street. We will start by walking up walking up Uphill Hill. The path is quite steep but very short. We will see the historic St Nicholas' Church and then go to Uphill Tower which may or may not be open to visitors. There will be plenty of lovely views of Weston-super-Mare and Somerset Levels!
We will then walk along the National Cycle Path towards Brean Beach going through Walborough Nature Reserve and Diamond Farm Holiday Park. There will be plenty of bird hides and birdwatching opportunities if you're a bird enthusiast! The path will be mostly flat.
Once we reach Brean Beach, we will walk along the beach and then go up onto Brean Down. The path will be quite steep. We will then reach the Fort which is awesome to explore with great views!
We will then walk back down the beach towards Cafe 33 at Diamond Farm to finish. We don't know how long we will stay at the cafe though because this depends on when the next bus will be and there is over an hour gap between buses. There is also the option of walking back to the starting point along the same route but we will decide on the day. We will take bus no.20 back to the Ship Inn which costs £2.60 per person if I'm correct.
Please wear good boots and suitable clothing because some sections will be steep and muddy. Please also bring waterproofs in case of rain.
If you are traveling from the Water Tower please be there at 8.45. I will not be there. Please message me if you are offering lifts from there.
Bring packed lunch. Cafe to finish.
