🥾 Walk

Please note that we are walking in a different area from when we attended in April.

The circular route starts from The Crossways walking through the village of North Wootton. Along the walk there will be views of Wells Cathedral, Glastonbury Tor and picturesque valleys (weather permitting). It consists of a mixture of woodlands and meadows. There are two steep hills so a good level of fitness is required.

In parts the grass is long and some area are muddy so suitable clothing and footwear is required.

🚗 Parking

The Crossways have kindly said we can use their lower car park.

Toilets and drinks available onsite - open from 8am for those who are wishing to have breakfast beforehand!

🍽️ Food and drink

There will be a brief 10 minute stop halfway through the walk if you wish to bring a snack and drink. Ensure you have enough water for the walk.
