Our verdict
Utility walking done pleasantly — the route you take because it's there, made better by water and shade. Join it to Nine Springs and Yeovil suddenly has a green cross-town route worth bragging about.
Yeovil's green thread along the River Yeo and Dodham Brook, linking the town's parks under a corridor of bankside trees — flat, hard-surfaced in stretches and handy from the centre.
A tree-lined riverside path through Yeovil, open at all times.
