WALKS BOOK


The Dundry Hill Group have been busy walking the area to find routes to be included in the Walks on Dundry Hill book.

Ten interesting walks have been chosen; for each one there will be a route description, map, and information on history, geology, archaeology and interesting sights along the way.

The walks will take you along ancient lanes, past the Iron Age hill settlement of Maes Knoll, through ancient woodland at Bitham's Wood, through farmland, past rivers and streams and to places where you can admire the breathtaking views of area.

The group has recruited local residents, school groups, walking clubs and anyone with an interest in walking or the area to help write and check routes and information.

There are a range of walks from easy to hard, circular to linear, and from short to long. We hope people will find the book easy to use, with information about local bus routes, shops, pubs and cafés included.

There will also be a report form for people to fill in to help us address any difficulties that they may find.

The book is being produced with the help of North Somerset County Council, Bristol City Council and Bath, North East Somerset Council and The Forest of Avon.

We expect that the book will be published in early summer 2001 and it will be available through local shops, bookshops and local libraries.

Watch this space for update on availability!
