09:30 2 Boot A Cotswolds walk for Royalty (and Ramblers) (Joint Walk)

Event Date: Sat 20 April 2024
Event Time: 09:30

This walk is in the past.

We'll be following the Cotswold Way north via Dyrham Park returning via the Monarch's Way (hence the imaginative title). Spring flowers should be showing off their pretty petals and if it's sunny we may see early butterflies and hear lovely birdsong (if we are quiet!). It's the Cotswolds so it's not a flat walk and there are a couple of short steep ascents but there are also some great views and very pretty countryside!

Wear boots with a good grip.

Wanted: someone to organise car shares from Clifton Water Tower - please get in touch if you can help out.

There's no pub in the village, but we might be able to stop off somewhere on the way back.

Bring packed lunch. Pub to finish.

How do I join the walk?

Unless stated on the walk page, there is no need to sign up to join a walk. You’re very welcome to try out 1 or 2 walks before you join, but we do insist that after that you join the Brunel Walking Group.

On many walks you can just turn up at the meeting point where we will share lifts to the start of the walk. It’s OK if you don’t drive – we normally have enough drivers who are able to give lifts. Some walks you will need to make your way to walk start or you can post on our facebook group to ask if you can share a lift there. 

If sharing lifts passengers are expected to contribute towards petrol costs. Please bring coins or be prepared to make a bank transfer. As a guide, 30p/mile shared by everyone in the car. 

How do I know what to bring? And am I fit enough?

We provide a full recommended kit list here.  Please do bring water, a rainproof jacket, walking trousers (or similar) and walking shoes/boots – avoid jeans and trainers.

Walks are graded as either 1 boot, 2 boot or 3 boot.  Read more about choosing the right walk for your fitness level here,
