We are the Gloucestershire Walking Group. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Kevin B.
This is a typical Cotswolds walk, starting and ending in the picturesque village of Stanton.
It includes much open countryside and woodland and several points of interest, including Stanway House, with its historical and architectural interest.
Meet at the free carpark at Stanton Village Hall.
Total elevation is 430 metres, with a significant climb just after the start.
We will stop roughly halfway if anyone wants to bring a packed lunch.
Option of a pub stop in Stanton after the walk.
Attire and Footwear:
Dress appropriately for the weather. Sturdy walking boots are highly recommended for your comfort and safety due to steep, muddy and slippery sections.
Food and water
Please bring plenty of water. A packed lunch is suggested.
Pets Policy:
Dogs are not permitted on this walk, except for registered assistance dogs. If you have any concerns about route suitability, please consult with the walk leader beforehand.
Photography
We encourage you to take photos on our walks, but we ask that you do not share photos that include people's faces publicly (including Meetup) without their clear permission.
Occasionally, group photos may be taken during walks. The photographer will always tell you where these will be shared, such as Meetup, the 20s and 30s members’ WhatsApp group, or for promotional purposes on the Gloucestershire Walking Group website. If you do not want to be in a photo, please step aside.
If you need to withdraw photo consent after an image is taken or shared, or if you have any concerns, please email the walk leader.
Emergency Contacts:
Please carry emergency contact details with you at all times. Your safety is our priority.
Just north of, but very close to the centre of the village of Stanton.
