Walking

Bristol and its surrounding countryside have many opportunities for those wishing to enjoy a leisurely stroll or more challenging trek.

The routes on the National Cycle Network in and around Bristol are not only used by cyclists, but also by walkers who can make the most of the network’s safe, clean and traffic-free paths.

Bristol's central area – which includes the Harbourside, Old City, Broadmead and Cabot Circus – is well signposted for visitors on foot. Look out for the blue information points dotted throughout the city, which feature detailed street maps and key points of interest to help you find your way.

You can download a free map of Bristol to print out and take with you before you go, or you can even request a brochure be sent to you.
