One downside of this route is that it misses out Cadbury camp an iron age hillfort, make sure you turn into the field at the bottom of the hill....

A lovely coastal path route which opens up onto the beach in a few locations. The best are Ladye Bay and Black Nore. It get's tight in places but nothing to worry about....

The section between Yatton and Kenn involves a lot of attention and as per yesterday a couple of jumps of locked gates in order to follow the route, which also involves a few fields with animals though safe. Not always clearly signed and not the easiest route...

Matt Loveridge

Lovely route, fairly well maintained, narrow in places with some uneven ground but generally easy...

Enjoyable walk with a villagey exit through some older parts of Clevedon followed by a lovely walk across the lowland moors mostly by waterways and along a long green drove, with quiet lanes and a new cycle path into Yatton....

It uses a new cycle path around the back of a recently built housing estate to exit Yatton and then makes its way across the fields through horsey areas and arable fields before crossing under the M5 to the edge of Clevedon. In the town itself, it makes uses alleys through modern housing estates to reach the old Victorian town where it zigzags briefly up onto a delightful old path along a low cliff which gives a wide view south before heading for the seafront....

Took X6 bus from Clevedon to Summerhouse bus stop and walked into Nailsea via Stonehenge Lane and Valley Way Road....

Good scenery and interesting features en route. Slight disadvantage of having to cross the M5 by footbridge twice, but noise is not too bad....

JohnMyerson

Excellent views throughout although the path is rough in places and quite close to a steep drop occasionally. Currently (March 2022) a short diversion up to the road and back at Sandbanks (Walton Bay) because of a broken bridge. Toilets and refreshments at Lake Road and in Portishead town centre....

This route avoids the flooded wetlands of Clenai one but does involve a steep climb out of Clevedon....

JohnMyerson

Keep following the river till you get to a road, left and then right to pick up the path again....

Hildegard

I have tried to do it myself in the past and the lack of public access to the sea wall, the lack of a public right of way across the River Yeo, plus the blocking presence of the M5 in the area make it a serious challenge. There is also no public right of way over the suggested route along the river wall of the Yeo north of the Oldbridge River ditch in the same area....

Mockymock

The crossing of the M5 doesn't exist (its a gated pipeline crossing) and the crossing at junction 21 has no footpath and would be considered dangerous....

Chris

It starts with a trek out through the housing estates of Clevedon and then crosses the M5 and makes its way through an intensive farming and horsiculture zone between the two towns, ending with a walk in to Yatton along a lively B-road. This area would be alright to walk through if at any point the land is sown as grass, but I think the intensity of the cropping here generally makes the access as poor as it can be without actually blocking it....

Mockymock

It is also worth noting that this stretch of path has been approved as part of the developing England Coast Path, and is thus likely to become a well-maintained route in the not too distant future...

Mockymock

The line of the path suggested as the Slow Way no longer exists east of Court Lane and you need to cross the motorway using the road (which has a footway/verge) and the path through the pony pasture immediately next to the motorway. The second is a currently impassable section at the eastern end of the path through the fields immediately south of the road along Nailsea Wall....

Mockymock

Narrow path in parts, and vegetated but passable in late July....
