South Gloucestershire Council

South Gloucestershire has some outstanding countryside and wildlife for you to discover. To help you make the most of your visit we have a number of wildtracks for you to follow.

The wildtracks will lead you through one of our local nature reserves and into the wider countryside within the Forest of Avon. The circular walks have been devised by local people living in the area who walk these routes on a regular basis. The routes have been marked out on maps that you can download:

• Wick to Bridge Yate
• Wick to Doynton
• Wick to Pucklechurch
• Wick to Upton Cheyney, Swineford

The walks have been created to enable you to use public transport if you want to shorten your walk. Please see Traveline for bus timetables and routes.

Supporting local businesses

Local pubs are helping to promote the wildtracks by stocking our drinks mats and copies of the routes.
