18:30 1 Boot Black Horse 5 Mile Loop (Joint Walk)

Event Date: Wed 12 August 2026
Event Time: 18:30

5 Mile loop starting from the Black Horse Pub in Clapton in Gordano and we then head along the valley a little before ascending to Cadbury Camp Lane and walk past the millionaires’ houses before returning to the pub for a well-earned drink or two.

As this is an evening walk and my natural pace is quicker expect the pace to be around 3 mph, so please consider this when attending.

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.
