Overview

An easy walk from Malmesbury towards the village of Lea.

A pleasant walk along rivers, fields and through the pretty village of Lea. We return to Malmesbury town centre walking through a historic part of the town. Mainly level with the odd incline. Similar to a recent Monday walk, but a bit longer!

Terrain level 1 (not much climbing)

Moderate pace.

Coffee Stop

There are a few easy stiles.

There are cafes and pubs in Malmesbury town centre where the walk finishes. It is a short walk from the town centre, down a number of steps, to get back to the car park.

Meeting Time: 9:50. Long Term Car Park, Malmesbury SN16 9JT. Please park in the section of the car park closest to the Abbey. Please note there is a fee for using the car park.
