A local community group, Let's Walk Bishopston, has researched, developed and published a series of attractive local walking maps.
Whether walking for pleasure, for health or for another purpose, these walking maps help you find your way around Bishopston via as many off-road or quieter routes as possible.
The collection comprises seven route maps and a "master map" which summarises all seven, and the series has now been extended.
The extension map, "Let's Walk North Bristol", emerges from a project called "Walk Your Way to Health", and features routes from Bishopston GP surgeries to Southmead Hospital, plus an "access fitness" route made up of three linked loops.
As you will see, each item in the series is accessibly laid out, with directions and notes about local landmarks, etc., and helpful guidance on suitability.
Published in PDF format via the links below, these maps may be viewed here or downloaded for later study.
