Overview

The walk starts with spectacular views over the Severn Vale before heading south along the Cotswold Way. There is a climb over Cam Long Down and then Cam Peak, before walking round Downham Hill. Up again over Uley Bury and then, having followed the contours, it's up again to Nympsfield and back to the start.

A moderate walk but with four steep climbs.

A beautiful area if the weather's fine and we may get bluebells and new beech leaves.
