Overview

An attractive walk with good variety and superb views.

From Hailes, we start with a long steady climb up through woods to reach the hamlet of Farmcote. From there, we carry on to meet and old track (Campden Way) and follow this for some way before dropping down the escarpment to go through Wood Stanway and then across farmland back to Hailes.

Most of the walk is on good paths and tracks plus a little bit of road. Although quite long, the climb is steady rather than steep. The descent is similar but could be a bit slippery in places in wet weather. There are few stiles. There is a small chance we could meet some livestock. Suitable for well-behaved dogs on leads. Bring refreshments.

For those interested, the nearby Cafe at Hailes Fruit Farm can be recommended for post-walk refreshments.
