We are the Cirencester Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Starting in the village of Sapperton we head west and then north through woods and fields towards the Giant's Stone Burial Chamber. On to Bisley then back down to the Golden Valley and follow the Thames and Severn Canal with a short uphill path back to Sapperton.
Hills, views and peaceful villages.
The Group encourages car sharing from the Meeting Point. If you wish to go to the start point instead of joining the walk at the Meeting Point, please contact the Walk Leader who will tell you the Start Point and Time. Travel donation £2.
The forecast for Sunday is hot and sunny, potentially temperatures up to 32C so walkers are advised to wear light clothes, bring a hat and lots of fluids. Some of the walk will be in woods which will provide some shade but there will also parts where we are in full sun. Given this I have reviewed the planned route and if the heat and sun is becoming uncomfortable I will shorten the walk and avoid the leg that would take us through Bisley.
