Overview

Back in the long hot summer, due to the temperature, only a handful of walkers braved the conditions. Hence the walk is being revisited using a different route. Starting in the village of Sapperton the paths take us through woods and fields, past the 17th Century Waterlane House and onto the Giant's Stone Burial Chamber. We then head east and south to join the Macmillan Way back to Sapperton.

Neolithic burial chamber, valleys, hills, views and peaceful hamlets. Circular walk.  3 stops.
