Overview

Enjoy a varied walk to the south of Midsomer Norton led by a knowledgable local Ramblers member. Initially following the course of the dismantled Somerset and Dorset railway line towards Chilcompton, where local enthusthiasts work tirelessly to reinstate a substantial part of the line. Walk through Locombe Wood and along the delightfully named Snail's Bottom to pretty Charlton and along Waterside Valley back to Midsomer Norton.
