Highlights
Hi, I'm Wes — a born and bred Bristolian who loves sharing this amazing city with others. I know how easy it is to skip exercise while travelling, so I created this tour to help you stay active and explore Bristol at the same time. We'll cover more ground than a typical walking tour, taking in key sights and hidden gems at a relaxed running pace. The route is around 5km (3.5 miles) and usually takes between 60 to 90 minutes, with plenty of stops for stories, photos, and a breather. We’ll kick things off at Queen Square and finish up at the iconic M Shed. Whether you're a seasoned runner or just enjoy a gentle jog, this is a fun, energetic way to see the city through a local’s eyes.
