This walk is in the past.
In this circular walk, we'll head across the Chew Valley to Stanton Drew Stone Circle (there's an honesty box for admission). We continue heading towards Pensford but then head north on a long climb towards Maes Knoll, the site of an Iron Age hillfort (and lunch). There's more of a descent on our return through Chew Magna, then following the River Chew back to the start.
Derived from a walk I led back in 2016, this route follows sections of the TWO Rivers Way and THREE Peaks Walk.
Please pack appropriately for the weather conditions as there won't be much in the way of shelter along the way. There is one stint following a road otherwise, we're mostly crossing farmland and fields.
Bring packed lunch. Cafe to finish.
