Woods, Forts and the Hunted Cleric
Explore the local woods between Dursley and Wotton as well as an Iron Age Hillfort and the chance to learn about “The Most Dangerous Man in England”. Will there be bluebells? Bring a packed lunch.
A strenuous and perhaps muddy walk at times through beechwoods (and bluebells?); stunning views and quiet valleys. Returning mostly on the Cotswold Way. Possibility of shortening the walk by 2 miles on Stinchcombe Hill if the weather is poor.
