Recommended: A long, wheelchair- and pushchair-friendly route that is largely Kennet & Avon Canal towpath, with pavement out of Bath and into Melksham. Avoids the stiles, fields and crops and livestock of the shorter cross-country alternatives.

Waterway: nine tenths along the Kennet and Avon Canal.

Bath Skyline: Wide open space overlooking the World Heritage City of Bath (National Trust).

Bathampton Meadows: Green corridor linking the historic city of Bath to the countryside (National Trust).

Lunch: Bradford on Avon at the mid-point has multiple pubs, restaurants and facilities.
