This walk is in the past.
This is a linear bus walk so we will take the Y2 bus departing 10:21 from broadmead bus stop (opposite Evans Cycles) to The White Lion stop in Yate (arriving 10:56) and walk along the Jubilee way to Thornbury. Then there's an optional visit to the pub and you can get the T1 bus back to Bristol (bus is hourly). If you like you can meet us in Yate at the bus stop, text me if you're meeting us there in case of delays.
Bus fare is £2 each way. You can pay by card on the bus. Unless it's your birthday month then it's free https://travelwest.info/tickets-travelcards/free-bus-travel-on-your-birthday-month/
The route is fairly flat along fields, tracks and farmland. I didn't see any cattle on the prewalk though can't guarantee it will be cattle free. Dogs allowed but must be kept on leads the entire time. Some parts of the route are muddy and overgrown so walking boots and walking trousers (or nettle proof legs) are recommended.
Note: this is a linear walk so if you're driving there you will have to get yourself back to Yate somehow.
