This walk is in the past.
9.5 (1120ft ascent) mile loop starting from outside Churchill School at 12.20 then heading up by the Ski Centre and along the woods to pick up the Strawberry line for some easy miles. We then head cross country to pick up the West Mendip Way towards Shipham and then back to Churchill.
I will meet you at Churchill but if someone can arrange lifts from St Mary Redcliffe that would be great.
Please also reach out for lifts via Facebook at some drivers will not want to go to St Marys as it's inside the Clean Air Zone.
Pub option a few minutes drive from the end of the walk.
This will be a moderate pace walk to finish before sunset. Due to the later walk start time (allows you party animals in the club to recovery from Friday night!) I'm not really planning on stopping for a longer lunch break, so ideally eat beforehand.
Route is a mixture of easy cycle paths, muddy and rocky footpaths so wear suitable footwear.
Pub to finish.
