Event Date: Sat 23 April 2016
7 miles
A leisurely day out covering the whole of Brean Down, a stroll along the beach and an optional ice-cream stop at a nearby cafe (good selection of quality flavours). There will be a climb up some steps to get to the top of Brean Down followed by a few gentle inclines here and there. Will be rewarded with some great coastal views of Weston Bay and the surrounding area, even more so on a summy day.
Pleas ensure you bring hat, gloves, and usual clothes to keep you warm as it may be windy on the day.

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.
If sharing lifts passengers are expected to contribute towards petrol costs. Please bring coins or be prepared to make a bank transfer. As a guide, 30p/mile shared by everyone in the car.
How do I know what to bring? And am I fit enough?
We provide a full recommended kit list here. Please do bring water, a rainproof jacket, walking trousers (or similar) and walking shoes/boots – avoid jeans and trainers.
Walks are graded as either 1 boot, 2 boot or 3 boot. Read more about choosing the right walk for your fitness level here,
