Avon Valley Walk
Meet at the car park at Conham - booking required.
Friends of Troopers Hill, Friends of Eastwood Farm and Nature in the City will again join with the Bristol Living Rivers Project for what has now become an annual exploration of some of the wonderful sites in our part of the Avon Valley. This guided walk takes us through Conham, Dundridge Park, Troopers Hill, Nightingale Valley and Eastwood Farm finishing at Beeses' Bar and Tea Gardens to catch the ferry back to Conham.

Trailblazers' Tips
"Watch out for Kingfishers between Conham and Hanham - they are regularly seen and I saw one flying along the water the other day"
Chris, Bristol - May 2005
"If you're looking for cheap eats, I would recommend a little kiosk in Bristol Docks called Brunel's Buttery. It is somewhere between the SS Great Britain and the Industrial Museum. The guacamole & salad sandwich and the home made pies are great. My daughter had the chips."
Ruth, Bristol - November 2004
"If you stand near the information panel at Pulteney Bridge and look across the weir you can see a door-sized gap in the colonade beneath the hotel. Set back a little way you can just make out an arch. This is the original east gate into the medieval city."
Isobel, Bath - August 2004
"Beese's tea garden at Conham is great. The photo shows you what it looked like in the late 19th century. You get there by ferry but I think it's only open in summer. There's quite a lot to do around Conham for families really. You can get there by boat from Bristol too."
Delphine, South Wales - October 2004
