Southwick Parkrun is a fun and free volunteer run weekly run/race. It starts at 9:00 every Saturday. Southwick is a 2.5 lap course of the country park. It's a gravelly trail with a bit of up and down but it's quite fast. Bit puddly in the winter.

An oasis of green on the edge of the town of Trowbridge, Southwick Country Park is a nature reserve and home to a wide variety of wildlife, including rare reptiles such as adders, grass snakes and slow worms, alongside diverse wetland, woodland and grassland habitats. With a mix of surfaced paths, good for year-round and buggy/wheelchair use, and adventurous off-road trails, which do get muddy in winter, there's a walk to suit everyone. The Hope Nature Centre on site has goats, ponies and other animals - great for children - and there's parkrun on a Saturday morning, too.

Friendly cafe in a nice place, plenty of indoor seating. Simple menu but good value. Parking outside. The Southwick Parkrun finish the weekly run here but it's equally good if you're running at any other time.

From Whaddon Lane, the byway (at the time of writing this) is first a bit rutty, then, after the new signs, is tarmacked over, making it a nice smooth ride. At the rugby club, you can turn onto the road or turn right onto a small section of the cycleway.
