The route starts at Sutton Benger Village Hall. It then goes down Bellside, across the main road, and then up towards the motorway.

Unfortunately, much of the route is along roads that have no pavements, so it is not ideal for children. There is also a section that is along a muddy footpath and then uphill across fields, so it is not suitable for pushchairs.

If it is raining, or if it has been raining in the last few days, you will definitely need waterproof shoes for the section on the footpath and across the fields.

If you take the optional loop through Seagry Woods, it adds about a mile and 15 minutes; that takes the total length to nearly 5 miles and duration to about 2 hours 15 minutes.
