Overview

We leave the car park and immediately start ascending Churn Hill, from where there should be good views to the north of Blewbury and Didcot, before gradually dropping down past the Gallops to reach the Ridgeway. Walking west and then north, we head towards the village of Chilton before following the dismantled railway to Upton. Leaving Upton, we take field paths to the pretty village of Blewbury with its unique thatched houses.
