The perfect route to go traffic-free from Bath to Bristol. It follows the route of the former Midland Railway, which was established in the mid-19th century to connect the two cities.

Fantastic cycle path that links Bristol and Bath, one of the country's first dedicated off road cycle paths. A great ride, even the day after storm Eunice hit xF
