Circuit of Bath Walk

See Bath as you’ve never seen it before!
Homeless charity Julian House will be staging their 10th Circuit of Bath Walk on Sunday 26 September 2010. The 20 mile circular route takes in some fantastic countryside on the edge of the city. Participants can do anywhere between 2 and 20 miles; thanks to the unique shuttle bus service that operates between start points on the day.

The route comprises public rights of way through Monkton Combe, Englishcombe, Newton St Loe, Upper Swainswick and Bathampton. Solsbury Hill, the Midford Valley and Woolley are just a few of the scenic highlights. The terrain is a mixture of well-used paths and public rights of way, limited sections of roadway, flat ground and, of course hills – well, this is Bath!

Not only is this a great day out but participants will also be giving a welcome boost to the charity’s work. Although Julian House is best known for its busy Night Shelter, this is only one of services it provides for homeless men and women. Recognising that homelessness is not a single issue Julian House has developed new projects and facilities which aim to tackle the underlying problems which force men and women onto the streets.

Participants can start at any of the five check points, where detailed route instructions are supplied. Further information is available on the Julian House website – www.julianhouse.org.uk
