Overview

Starting in Leafield, we will explore the ancient Forest of Wychwood and the villages of Ascott-under Wychwood, Finstock and Ramsden. We will walk on the Wychwood Way, the Oxfordshire Way and even part of Akeman Street.  Whatever the route, there will be plenty of mud !

There are some hills and the walk is quite a strenuous due to its  length and the conditions.
