Cotswold - Horsley & Kingscote

Part of the pretty Cotswold village of Kingscote

Highlights of this walk

  • Pretty Costswold villages
  • Rolling green hills and vales
  • Woodland scenery
  • Traditional wildflowers
Visitors come from around the world to enjoy that classic beauty of the Cotswolds, but this section is off the main tourist trails. It may lack publicised attractions but it lacks nothing for attractiveness. On this walk you will see wildflower meadows, traditional beech woodland. cottages and whole villages build of Cotswold stone - and the sheer prettiness of classic Cotswolds scenery.

Safety and Difficulty

At just under 5 miles long, this walk offers few challenges to modertately fit walkers. There are some steep sections, but the worst is the hill back up to the start point - so a rest will follow! Some sections may be muddy.
