Bristol Urban Nature Map

This map offers a different way to explore Bristol.

It brings together the rivers you can follow, the hills you can climb, the woods you can wander through, and the green spaces woven through everyday streets. Seen this way, the city becomes a connected landscape rather than a collection of destinations.

Use it to find a new way across Bristol. Take a longer route home. Walk a river you’ve never noticed, or cycle out along a green corridor and see where it leads. The map makes it easy to explore without over-planning, and often works best when you let it reshape your routine. It is an alternative guidebook for visitors, and helps residents see their city anew.

Turn it over and the atlas on the back offers ideas rather than instructions: seasonal moments, small adventures, and ways to engage with the city’s wildlife and landscapes. Nothing prescriptive, just prompts to help you look again.

Printed on durable paper with vivid fluorescent inks, it’s designed to be used — folded into a bag, taken out on a walk, marked, shared.

For those who like to explore as they go, and for anyone who wants to see more of Bristol than they expected.

Printed on the same press as Ordnance Survey maps, it is a large-format (950 × 1270mm), high-quality, folded map – custom drawn to highlight all the places to explore on foot or by bike.
