Devizes Canal Short Walk
1.75 miles

This is a nice family-friendly short walk around the market town of Devizes. It will stroll around town itself with plenty of refreshment options and it also walks along a stretch of the Kennet and Avon Canal.

Refreshments: The Bell by the Green, Devizes The Silk Mercer, Devizes The Pelican Inn, Devizes

Devizes Canal and Quakers Walk
2.75 miles

This alternative route from Devizes heads north of the town along the Quakers Walk path and through some open countryside for fresh air and exercise. The walk then brings you back along a lengthy stretch of the Kennet and Avon Canal for some waterside walking before heading back to to the start. You can link this to the first route if you want to visit the town itself and make this a pub walk.

Devizes Canal and Roundway Hill Walk
4 miles

This final route only extends the second walk by a relatively small amount, but it does take you on a steep climb up to the top of Roundway Hill. This makes the walk a much more energetic outing and of course you will be rewarded with some great views.
