Leckhampton Hill, Charlton Kings Common – Miles without Stiles – Cotswolds National Landscape
3.7 mile circular using surfaces paths and minor road to create a circular route with far reaching views from the Cotswolds Scarp. It uses part of the Cotswold Way National Trail. You can start from either car park on the route.
This route can be enjoyed either way round and from either car park. It is very exposed on the top, so be prepared for a bit of a breeze.
Cowslips are incredible in mid-spring!
