12:00 2 Boot Wraxall to Clevedon via Prior’s Wood and Cadbury Camp (Joint Walk)
Event Date: Sun 7 July 2024
Event Time: 12:00
This walk is in the past.
Catch the 11:30 X7 bus from Bristol bus station, arriving 11:56 at The Grove bus stop. I will meet you at the bus stop. The X9 bus also follows the same route.
We'll start by climbing the hill with views of Tyntesfield, making our way over Prior's Wood near Portbuty. From there we'll walk towards Clevedon via Cadbury Camp lane (undoubtedly taking a little peek at some extravagant houses along the way...) and Cadbury Camp hill fort.
We'll aim to finish with a drink in the Salthouse Pub overlooking Clevedone Marine Lake - where people might be interested in going for a swim if the weather is good. For those who want to catch a later bus, the option of fish and chips and a sunset on the seafront is also there.
The return bus (X7) to Bristol leaves Clevedon once per hour until late.
The weather may well be very hot; if so, bring sun cream and plenty of water.
Bring packed lunch.
Pub to finish.

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.
