July 19, 2025,Bradford-on-Avon to Bath (Kennet and Avon Canal Walk Stage 6)

First ignore the 1,950ft elevation. Not sure how my Garmin gave this result. This is a very flat walk. I also missed the turn at Avoncliff and walked over the aqueduct. The correct turn is on the right as you round the bend with the aqueduct in front of you.
