Overview

A short evening circular walk from near Naunton. We will start by following the River Windrush before crossing a broad spur to the valley of the River Eye and the pretty Cotswold villages of Lower and Upper Slaughter. We return across the Cotswold plateau with wide views and with luck a good sunset.
