SU4: TEA & CAKE WALK
Adult £2 / U16 £1 - 3.5 miles
Please note the start time is the time we leave so please arrive 10 minutes beforehand to allow for registration and briefing.
Also, we have a ‘no dogs except assistance dogs’ policy for all our walks.
A Sunday afternoon walk to a popular cafe alongside the canal. What’s not to like? This is a gentle, fairly level walk with just a couple of short climbs and no stiles.
We’ll start the walk with a gradual climb up through The Strips Woods with the sound of the river weir below accompanying us. A wiggle between houses and allotments takes us out to the fields alongside the River Avon, past the Sailing Club & into the Wiltshire Wildlife Trust’s peaceful Widbrook Woods.
Another short climb takes us up to the canal which we follow all the way back to the lock & the Kennet & Avon Canal T rust Cafe for our tea & cake (please bring a card or money to pay for your own refreshments).
Re-invigorated we’ll return to the start passing the Medieval Tithe Barn & alongside the delightful riverside path with some great views of the terraces of Tory rising above us.
