Overview

Starting from Lydney Harbour, we follow the cliff footpath for river views across to Sharpness, turning inland to pass Naas Court, then crossing the canal for a walk along the river Severn before returning to Lydney Harbour.

Walk will be on tracks and small uneven paths. Due to the time of year, part of the walk could be muddy with wet grass and possibility of a few slippery stones.
