the point at which the Kennet and Avon canal crossed the river and railway line via the Aqueduct built by John Rennie & John Thomas between 1797 and 1801. Good pub here which will reopen summer 2025. This is on the main railway line now becoming a regular (request?) stop since 2011

From Bath to here on a road bike with 25mm is doable but take it easy, further on, its a little rougher and 35mm would be better. here is a good stop of lunch or a drink

It is a great walk, is an easy flat, and has great views

Fabulous community owned pub in a historic village. Lovely garden which welcomes dogs, good food and friendly staff. Excellent spot for a well earned break / pint.

After Midford this quickly becomes hard packed gravel. Safe and relatively comfortable to ride on any road bike. Several gates to pass through, watch out for craters on the path.

It is doable on any road bike (including 25mm tyres) as long as you choose your lines well. I've ridden it multiple times without punctures and no stone chips either (18mph or so). Surface has gotten more and more cratered over the years but is well compacted (not chattery) and safe to ride. Several gates to pass through along the way.

The South Stoke Millennium Viewpoint is an elevated vantage point providing picturesque views of the surrounding rolling hills, lush greenery and charming villages of the southern Cotswolds.

Great view and nice contact with the boat people.
