Overview

Leaving the Swineford Picnic Site, we have a slight incline to Upton Cheyney, then walk along a narrow road until we reach a footpath that will take us through fields down to Bitton, where we will join the Monarchs Way to the outskirts of Keynsham and reach the River Avon.

We then follow the river back to Swineford.

It is a flatish walk of 4 miles going through fields. 

Optional drink in the Swan after the walk.

The walk is led by our friends at Kingswood Ramblers, who have kindly invited us to join them.
