Overview

Starting from Cranham Common the route over undulating countryside takes us on a mix of farmland and woodland. There is a short stretch of the Cotswold Way in Witcombe Woods and then on through the Cotswold Commons and Beechwoods Reserve. Then on to Sheepscombe and return to Cranham via Saltridge Wood.

A few sharp climbs so bring poles if they help you.
