We are the Bristol Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
This route mainly follows the Bruce Trail in the Cotswolds (Not the Canadian sister route which is several hundred miles)
This route is about 9 miles long following paths along the edge of the Cotswolds including woodland paths, tracks and minor roads. The woodland tracks are likely to be muddy. Climbs tend to be moderate and not too long.
The Edgemoor Inn is just over half way. The patio of this pub has spectacular views along the Painswick valley.
Unfortunately the open picnic site is 300 metres further along from pub. The walk takes us to Haresfield Beacon with spectacular views and to the topograph at Shortwood
Shortwood National Trust Carpark (Pay and Display, members free) (Coffee van usually here at weekends} Road side parking usually available.
