View of the River Avon

It's a dead end path but lovely view of the Avon from the Grotto - a little shelter

Arrive at the bottom for midday on a sunny day to get the glorious sunshine on the pool. Great stream wading for children on the other side of the path.

Rocky Climb to Leigh Woods from Pill Path

Highlight (Segment) • Forest

This bridleway climb is rideable but you’ll need to pick your gears and line carefully. It's much easier in the dry and without too many slippery leaves around.

Good fun …

River Avon Trail

Highlight • River

Pretty stretch of path running alongside the Avon between Pill and Bristol, passing under the spectacular Clifton suspension bridge. Can be narrow and muddy in places, so go careful.
