Clifton to Lynton.

(Bristol to the sea)

A walk encompassing one hundred and thirty miles of magnificent English countryside – valleys, hills, levels, moorlands and villages culminating in the spectacular scenery of the coastal path. This is an ideal link path between the Cotswold way and the North Devon coastal path. The sixteen miles bridging the walks between Bath and Bristol are on a well-established footpath, much of which runs along the banks of the river Avon. This book covers in detail the one hundred miles from Bristol to Lynton in Devon. The last thirty miles of the journey from Lynton to Croyde bay provides an interesting addition with a very good stretch of coastal path nearly all of which is the property of the National Trust, thus avoiding the hazards of caravan parks, etc.. Several books detailing this area have already been written, so the description will only be brief. The coastal path is extremely well waymarked and easy to follow. Should you be fortunate enough to have a couple of weeks to spare, there will be ample time to cover the walk. If you only have one-week then it is best to set off on Saturday from Bristol. The city it is easily accessible to outsiders, as it is served by good train and coach transport.
