This walk is in the past.

8 ish mile afternoon walk around the slopes of Dundry and Maes Knoll taking in views over Bristol and the Chew Valley throughout the walk.

Hoping to stop at Chew Moos for an ice cream part way around the route.

Expect a pace of around 3 mph so not a slow walk, got to burn off that Ice Cream!

Due to the ULEZ zone I will meet you at the start point but I'm happy to collect people from near Ashton Gate if required but please make contact we me direct if you need a lift from here.

If someone could collect people from Saint Mary Redcliffe church that would be great.

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,
