Sunday Walks All Start at 10.00am
Dover's Hill - Chipping Campden - Weston-sub-Edge 5.5 miles.
This is a short but fairly strenuous walk, involving two substantial climbs, which we will take at a slow pace, enjoying the expansive views as we go.
From Dover's Hill, site of the annual Olympick Games (wide glorious views on a clear day) down to beautiful Chipping Campden. A climb back up the Cotswold Way and descent to Weston-sub-Edge and its vanished medieval manor house. Finally, a steady climb back up to Dover's Hill.
Some quiet and town roads, good field paths, woodland. A few stiles. Red kites if we are lucky.
Travel: 40 minutes approx. from Redditch.

From the NT website:
Mobile signal at Dover's Hill can be limited, so you can register your parking either before you arrive, during your visit, or shortly after, just as long as it's completed on the same day.

4. Enter your membership number to remove the parking charge.
