This walk is in the past.
A walk which takes in local Bristol countryside.
We will start in Clifton Village and make our way over the Suspension Bridge to Ashton Court. After walking through Ashton Court and taking advantage of the views, we will make our way to Abbots Pool and then onto to Leigh Woods. We will then head back to Clifton Village and finish in one of the many pubs of cafes for a post walk refreshment.
Walk is open to all members.
We will be meeting outside the Tesco Express in Clifton Village, which is close to the bus stop for bus routes 8 and 9. A link to the bus timetable and route is below. Parking is limited in Clifton Village and has a 3 hour max stay (not long enough for the walk), so arriving by public transport is recommended.

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.
