This walk is in the past.

A local North Somerset walk.

Starting in Nailsea, we will skirt around Backwell, heading towards one of the old quarries. Weather permitting, we will have good views over the local area. From here, we will make our way towards Jubilee Stone and then to Bourton Combe. We will then head back towards Nailsea through countryside.

If the rain continues, the walk will be muddy in areas.

Meeting point is at the free Clevedon Road Cark Park. You can also reach Nailsea by public transport. To make the walk starting point, you can take the 9:15 X9 bus from Bristol Bus Station to arrive at 9:46. Please check timetables in case of any schedule changes.

Bring packed lunch. Pub to finish.

How do I join the walk?

Unless stated on the walk page, there is no need to sign up to join a walk. You’re very welcome to try out 1 or 2 walks before you join, but we do insist that after that you join the Brunel Walking Group.

On many walks you can just turn up at the meeting point where we will share lifts to the start of the walk. It’s OK if you don’t drive – we normally have enough drivers who are able to give lifts. Some walks you will need to make your way to walk start or you can post on our facebook group to ask if you can share a lift there.
