Overview

Fields, woodlands, secret valleys and quiet lanes to the villages of Syde, Caudle Green and Brimpsfield. Good views from hill tops if the sun shines. A couple of steep ups and downs, otherwise long inclines. Total 1100ft of descent. Valley bottoms and bridlepaths will be boggy and potentially slippery. A couple of awkward stiles. Coffee/snack and a lunch stop. FASTER PACE.

Local walk grade - FASTER PACE, terrain 3 quite hilly.
