I'd second what's already been offered - Eastville park, Stoke Park and Abbey Wood join up nicely in a largely car-free loop. Blaise is nice if you like hills and dogs. You can't beat the railway path to Bath (and the branch up towards Chipping Sodbury) for flat, uninterrupted long runs. The river path along the Avon to Bath is lovely too, but probably v. muddy/actually underwater at this time of year. If you want to be social everyone is doing loops of the Down or around the harbour.

It looks like i will be visiting Bristol a bit more often in future as daughter has bestowed upon us 2 amazing tiny granddaughters. When daughter lived near Cliftonwood/ Hotwells - i enjoyed running 1/2 mile down to the Avon trail and long runs to Pill. Now she ...
