A linear walk, walkers to make their own way back to the start, regular bus service from Bath stopping in Box. If you have a bus pass don’t forget it, otherwise standard £3 fare payable without pass.
From Box Recreation Ground we follow the By Brook to Shockerwick, where we cross the main A4 road and then, via a footbridge, the railway and across fields, rising slightly, to visit Bathford and along quiet roads and fields to Bathampton where we join the canal tow path into Bath.
No significant hills involved in the route but fields and tracks likely to be muddy, appropriate footwear essential, poles may be useful. Stock possible in fields.
Dogs at discretion of walk leaders but please ensure that your dog can travel on buses.
Opportunity to visits cafes/shops etc in Bath but please bring snacks/drinks for a coffee break.
