A very pretty hill walk from the picturesque village of Blockley in the heart of the Cotswolds. Our 12 mile route takes in some familiar footpaths and sights such as Sezincote and Batsford, as well as the beautiful Hinchwick Valley.

Meet in the centre of the village by the village cafe. Parking is around the village on the street (free of charge). Parking can be a bit tight so give yourself time to find a spot and car share if you can. For the exact location see below:

Our Walks

We tend to walk at between 3 and 3.5 miles an hour, which is faster than Ramblers and social groups. We tend to stop for a couple of breaks and around 20 minutes for a picnic lunch. This is a walking group, so we don’t hang about to take lots of photographs. There is no guarantee of finding toilets during our walk.

**Walk Statistics**
This walk is 12.04 Miles in length
This walk has 1400 feet of total ascent
Moderate with a few steady climbs.

We leave on time and unable to wait for latecomers.
You should have a reasonable level of fitness to do this walk and new members are welcome to join us.

**What to bring**

There is no planned pub or cafe stop en-route so you'll need to bring enough foodstuffs and liquids to keep you going all day. You'll need decent footwear and suitable clothing. Jeans are not recommended as they can become very uncomfortable if it rains. Only walking type wellies. Trainers are only useful when the conditions are very dry. Please ensure you carry enough water when the weather is warm. 2 litres is the minimum during summer months.

Your walk leaders and event coordinators are Jon W and Hazel G
Jon is a very experienced walk leader and trained to MLT standards. Hazel has completed the 2 day Outdoor First Aid Course. The group holds public liability insurance.

We try to keep together as a group, so please try other groups if you want to compete with others or push ahead on your own. You must be willing to listen to all instructions that impact on your safety.
You must be medically fit enough to participate. If in doubt, please speak with the walk leader beforehand. Medication must be carried if necessary.

No dogs please (except assistance dogs by prior consent).

Places are limited, so please only book on to this event if you really intend to participate. All walks are subject to static and dynamic risk assessments. As with any outdoor activity, walking carries a certain level of risk. Whilst we do endeavour to avoid any unnecessary risks, participants must take all reasonable precautions themselves to avoid injury.
