Our verdict
Bath's community-spirit wood — planted by locals, kept by locals, and offering a gentler alternative to the Cotswold Way slog up Lansdown. The higher you climb, the better the city looks.
A community-planted wood climbing the hillside between Weston village and Lansdown on Bath's northern rim, with mown rides, wildflower edges and widening views back over the city as you rise.
Community woodland on the slopes above Weston village, open at all times.
