The hills east of Bath belong to the National Trust: meadows, woods and paths that look down on the city, with the Royal Crescent and the abbey in the distance. There is a waymarked circuit that you can walk in full, in a morning, or in sections, joining from Bathwick or Claverton Down.
There is no car park of its own, but buses from the centre are frequent. It is open countryside, from dawn to dusk, with a play area and picnic spots; there are steps and uneven stretches, and in winter, mud. With a dog, keep it on a lead near livestock.
