Whether you prefer to ‘lose yourself’ in the woodlands, a relaxing stroll by a lake or a picnic with stunning views, we are spoilt with choice in Bristol. Some even have opportunities to meet the resident animals, including ducks and goats!
Here are 13 gorgeous countryside walks around Bristol to try this festive season.
13. Snuff Mills
The tranquil Snuff Mills, or Whitwood Mill, is nestled by the River Frome in North Bristol's Stapleton area. It's full of industrial history, and is home to lots of woodlands, the famous Snuff Mill, landscaped gardens and stunning walks alongside the river, as well as plenty of areas for dogs to swim. | BristolWorld
