Overview

From Upton St Leonards along the Ash Path to Matson and past the dry ski slope and Sneedhams Green to the motorway services for coffee, returning through Matson and the Upton St Leonards churchyard. Easy walking on good paths. A short stretch of road walking but no stiles. Coffee stop at the services. BYO or buy one there.
For South Cotswold Ramblers only there is the option of picnic lunch after the walk. This needs to be booked and paid for IN ADVANCE. Details will be on our website.

Moderate pace. Local walk grade - terrain 0 level.
