Nightingale Valley

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

Designated footpath from the Leigh Woods entrance to the Pill Path

Sketchy and rocky underfoot even in summer. Even if it wasn't strictly a footpath I wouldn't bring a bike down here.

Leigh Woods

Highlight • Natural Monument

Leigh Woods is a tranquil nature reserve situated next to the iconic Clifton Suspension Bridge. With a delightful mix of broadleaf woodland, open grassy glades, and much flora and fauna, the reserve’s waymarked trails lead you to breathtaking viewpoints over Bristol, the suspension bridge crossing the Avon Gorge, and beyond. The woodland is in the care of the National Trust.
