Overview

Ridges, Valleys and Woods.  Views of the Wiltshire Downs (on a clear day) , then via Combe Hay, following the routes of old railways through Midford to the viaduct near Tucking Mill. Railways, a classic film and walks all combine here. Then a climb back up to Odd Down via Southstoke, with Mendip views ( on that clear day). There is relatively little ascent apart from that.
