OVERVIEW

Outdoor Adventure Girls – BIG WEEKEND #8 Bath

THE LOCATION

Bath is the largest city in the county of Somerset, England, known for and named after its Roman-built baths. Bath has been a wellbeing destination since Roman times with both the ancient Roman Baths and the thoroughly modern Thermae Bath Spa, which houses the only natural thermal hot springs in Britain you can bathe in.

Bath’s compact, visitor-friendly centre is overflowing with places to eat and drink, plus some of the finest independent shops in Britain, making it the ideal city break. Immerse yourself in Bath’s remarkable collection of museums and galleries, and enjoy year-round festivals, theatre, music and sports.

THE SCHEDULE

Please note that this is subject to change, but will give you an idea of what to expect.

An itinerary will be sent to all booked guests one month before the event, with all details needed to attend the weekend.

There is also a WhatsApp chat for all attendees to plan car sharing and chatting before.
