Overview

Meet at 18:30 for a 18:45 start for a 3.25 mile circular walk from outside the Edgemoor Inn in Edge on the A1473 GL6 6ND 01452 81357

We follow the Cotswold way up hill through Edge Common and into Stockend wood. The route then goes into open countryside with good views   The return is through the woods. After the initial ascent, the route is fairly easy going. If it has rained recently, walking boots are recommended.

Please share lifts where possible as there is limited space for us in the car park

Afterwards there is the opportunity for drinks and food at the pub. We will be able to order after the walk.
