| A fairly short walk but one that takes in a lot of the surrounding countryside. There are some great views near the start of the walk and the villages you walk through are typical of a Cotswold village. Cotswold stone and ancient looking buildings with crooked rooves. Nice walk. | ||||
Walk 13 |

. |
| A fairly easy going walk with plenty to see. The view from the Tyndale Monument is well worth the climb up the spiral staircase but remember to take some change for the lights! Plenty of history lessons along the way on this walk. | ||||
Walk 17 |

. |
| A great walk for views. You get a great view of the river Severn and the Vale of Gloucester from a few view points along this walk and worth doing on a clear afternoon when the sun is just dipping. An interesting war memorial can be found on this walk and not from the first or second world war! The Shortwood topograph is also interesting to look at. | ||||

Through the wooded By Brook Valley from a famous picture-book village. This was a great walk through a classic Cotswold village which then led into a quiet woodland where Deer and Trout can be spotted if you creep along the path's. |

Walk 44 |
||||
. |
Combine a stroll around England's finest medieval village with a riverside walk and a visit to Lacock Abbey, home of photographic pioneer Fox Talbot. A classic medieval village to nose around with plenty of shops and tea rooms to stop and take it all in. The surrounding woodlands are a great place to spot the deer running around. |
