10:00 1 Boot Coaley Peak and Woodchester Mansion (Joint Walk)

Event Date: Sun 27 July 2025

This walk is in the past.

Starting from the Coaley Peak car park and viewpoint we head through beech woods to arrive at Selsley common which also gives good views over the Severn valley. From here we pass through open fields and a vineyard before reaching the edge of the Woodchester Park estate. We then walk through Woodchester park, catching glimpses of the five lakes in the valley, before returning to the start point.

Please bring packed lunch. Refreshents and toilets will also be available at Woodchester mansion which we will stop at towards the end of the walk.

Bring packed lunch.

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.
