Christmas Eve! Freeom from work for the ten days that would follow!
One day before the highlight of the week and I’d decided to head out for a walk on the Mendip Hills. This walk began in Priddy, which is only a thirty-minute drive from home.
Along with walking more of the Severn Way long-distance footpath, there’s a chance I’ll be able to complete the River Parrett Trail in 2018.
It’s only fifty-miles in length (same as the full Mendip Way) and could be completed in a short series of circular walks. From Steart in Somerset, at one end of the West Somerset Coast Path; it continues south, it follows the river south to its source, across the border and in to Devon.

On my return route to Oldbury-on-Severn in Gloucestershire, I explored the Vale of Berkeley and its deer park.

Walking the Severn Way, from Oldbury-on-Severn to Berkeley, via two nuclear power stations.
In my previous post, I signalled an intention for 2018; to walk more of the Severn Way long-distance footpath.
This is a walk from early December, when I first put that plan in to practice. In this post, I’ll share the route along the Way. In a future post, I’ll show you my return route to complete the circuit to my car.
