As the Wychwood Way traverses the Lenches above the Avon Valley and the Vale of Evesham, it passes between Yeald Wood and Old Yew Hill Wood. For 1.2 miles (1.9 km), a fenced trail takes you on a tranquil ramble beneath the trees. Autumn is glorious here, when the leaves crunch beneath your boots and the shades turn golden.

Hiking

Yeald Wood has some beautiful trees, and in places is open enough for the light to get in to light up the trunks.
