This enjoyable 7.7 mile circular walk starts from the car park of the historic Crofton Beam Engine pumping station. It was built to keep the Kennet & Avon Canal summit supplied with water and is supposed to be the "oldest working beam engine in the world still in its original engine house and capable of actually doing the job for which it was installed."

The route follows the canal to the North of Burbage and encounters some interesting features along the way, including the Bruce tunnel and Burbage Wharf.

The route then circles through more familiar fields before crossing the A346 and cutting through Burbage itself.

There are a couple of pubs in and around Burbage and a local store.
