Guide to Bristol & Bath Pub Walks: Pocket-Size Guidebook with 20 Walking Routes: 20 Pub Walks

Admittedly I've not walked any yet, but having read through the book, the walks are well described and explore territory familiar to me which I know to be beautiful. Maps are clear, description seems sufficiently detailed.As they skirt the Cotswolds and the Mendips, I expect some of these walks to have some fairly robust climbs in there - one even talks about a "hands and feet" climb.The walks are posted as between 4 and 8 miles - I'll have to see whether that's accurate.I've taken a photo of the back of the book, which shows where each walks is centred. It would have been useful for me when I was browsing, so hopefully it is for you.

This book is a must for all ramblers, with easy to follow instructions and maps. The walks start and end at a pub, which is always positive. Good size for your pocket.

We absolutely love this pocket sized book, it made a great little stocking filler! It's really helped us to explore our local area. The only criticism I have is that the 'Old Sodbury' walk becomes slightly confusing around halfway through so we got lost for a while but eventually found our way and rejoined the trail. The traditional pub 'The Dog Inn' at the end of the route was a real treat, I recommend stopping for a drink and a snack!

I have been using the old version for a long time, and some of the pubs and walks are no longer there. Nice to have this little gem updated.

Done most of these, super.

Done a few of these walks and most of them are lovely. However, the walk from Hinton Blewit has several wrong directions, turn right rather than left and right edge rather than left edge. I checked with GPS and an OS map. These wrong directions meant over an extra 2 miles. Be warned and take an OS map and your smart phone.

After page 48 (half way through walk 15 we got a repetition of pages 33 to 48!) So more than a quarter of the walks were missing. Unfortunately this wasn't discovered until we went to do one of the walks later in the book and now there's no way to return it to the seller as the returns window has closed. No way to let the seller know either...

Unfortunately the publicity for this book fails fails to make clear it's entirely written for motorists. It doesn't give any information about public transport to access these walks.I don't have a car so this book is entirely useless to me.
