View of Bath from the Cotswold Way

Highlight • Forest

High point on the Cotswold Way just before the descent into Bath begins. From here out it's a gradual decline into the city, though the views remain spectacular as you go down

Tip by

2.36 km

No way up here from the Kelston round hill unless you have a team of 3. Large 7ft+ deer fences are pretty much impassable with anything heavier than a high end carbon bike. Gates too narrow to squeeze in without a folding bike.

If you do have said team of 3 then the strongest person straddles the fence, one lifts the bikes up to them, the other receives.

The alternative is to go down the bridleway to north Stoke and up again

Prospect Stile Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

Higher than Kelston Roundhill, Prospect stile opens up excellent panoramic views of Bath and Bristol. It also offers a spot to identify prominent features in the landscape below. Well worth a visit on a clear day.
