The Cotswolds - The best walk of the Cotswolds

This lengthy walk in the Cotswolds that includes four villages that in varied ways rank among the most appealing in Cotswold: bustling Bourton-on-the Water, idyllic Lower Slaughter, tranquil Upper Slaughter and tucked-away Naunton. A Bonus is that the countryside around complements these villages, revealing a Cotswold landscape at its finest and most typical, with shelter valleys of the rivers Eye and Windrush, pleasant woodlands and impressive, expansive views across rolling country from breezy uplands.

Please note this Waterfall walk is over 80 miles away - over 2 hours driving from London so only join if you are in the area on Saturday 5th.

I am also organising a “non free” 2 day event the full itinerary is below. Leaving London on Saturday 5th June (Cotswolds), returning late back to London on Sunday 6th after a walk along the Cheddar Gorge.

If you are interested in the full 2 day event, just email michaelwk16@yahoo.com Michael will organise all of the logistics: Transportation from London via cars, hotel accommodation and 2 walks, just message me and I will send you details & cost.
