패치웨이 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

Take some time to walk up the hill & around the top. It's an area of heathland called "The Tump"! Lots of opportunities to see wildlife, especially birds. It's usually quiet up here, and really pretty. I've added a screenshot where I've circled the pathway that goes around the summit - You can walk up here and then decend down by the lake, for example. Or, you can walk up, complete the loop & head back down! Either way, I'd say it's worth coming up here

Just absolutely stunning, ancient woodland in the heart of Bradley Stoke!! I could spend hours & hours in here, especially now, in autumn

Such a lush spot, especially in Autumn 🍂🖤🍂 (I'm biased, I think it's the best time of year!) It is worth a walk, and you can easily walk there down the direct path, or there are ways up & down from "The Tump"

Nice spot to stop for a brake

An escarpment above the large village of Almondsbury, this is a glorious viewpoint across the Severn Estuary. Both Severn Bridges can be seen in all their glory, as well as the Forest of Dean and a large part of South Wales. Back in the village, there are a couple of pubs to choose from if you want to drink in more than just views.

The large village of Almondsbury is split in two by Almondsbury Hill, which gives superb views across the Severn and its iconic bridges. To the north is picturesque Lower Almondsbury, where you'll find St Mary's Church and the rustic Bowl Inn. The upper part of the village is more modern and also has a pub: the Swan Inn.

Gets very boggy by the lake in winter, otherwise it's a great track. The boggy bit might be avoidable with a small detour.

This is a nice shortcut into Filton via a footpath if the weather is nice. It's under trees so in wet weather/conditions it will be muddy (damp otherwise) and I pushed my bike for half of it, but if you're not in a rush it's a nice traffic free way into Filton that avoids the big roundabout at the juntion with the M5. BEWARE though - there are narrow/tall gates to stop motorbikes getting over the motorway footbridge on both sides. I made it through lifting and twisting my (women's) bike, which has a flat handlebar, but I think for wider handlebars (MTB or drops/flared) this could be impassable, so if you're in a rush and unsure, probably best to avoid.
