Walking Guides & Walking in The Cotswolds
Here in the Cotswolds you'll find ideal walking country: stunning countryside with green rolling hills crisscrossed by countless footpaths, secluded river valleys, picturesque towns and villages of honey-coloured stone along with an abundance of welcoming Cotswold inns and tearooms.
Serious hikers can enjoy challenging long distance paths like the Cotswold Way or Thames Path, while those wanting a gentler ramble can download one of the many free downloadable walks or arm themselves with an Ordnance Survey map and head off to make their own discoveries.
Some of the small Cotswold market towns, such as Dursley and Winchcombe, hold annual walking festivals, while our friendly Cotswold Voluntary Wardens organise hundreds of free, guided walks. There are also a number of companies offering guided or self-guided walking tours, which can often be tailored to your own requirements.
