We are the Evesham Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

Join Evesham Ramblers and Evesham Rambling Club for a seven mile walk in the lovely countryside around Twyning, followed by a visit to Showborough House Garden Sculpture Exhibition, where you can view an incredible selection of art and sculpture in the delightful gardens and meadow.
We will be walking mainly on good paths & tracks plus a bit of road, with one short busyish section to navigate. There are quite a few stiles. It is a little hilly but there is nothing very big or steep. There may also be livestock (sheep/cattle) in a couple of fields.
Bring refreshments for a lunch/snack break and please ensure you have your emergency contact details with you.
Note: This walk is a shorter version of the walk that is scheduled for Sunday 5th May, which will allow participants more time to visit the house and gardens at Showborough.
(see weblink below for a map of the route)
Parking is free at Showborough, as is entry to the gardens and art/sculpture exhibition. To get there you are advised to use Google maps. Set the location pin on Showborough House and follow the directions carefully. If SatNav is set using the postcode it will send you to Strensham services! Stewards will be on hand outside the gates to the parking and picnic field. W3W location for Showborough is flocking.lakeside.shameless.
There is a cash and Apple Pay honesty tea room in the Showborough garden and donations to the annual exhibition are of course very welcome. On the walk we will stop for a picnic lunch, although there will also be time afterwards for people to picnic in the designated area in the parking meadow or to use the tea room and facilities, but only for purchases made there.
