Can get very technical and slippery after rain, much leaf cover but stones under mud can help

Just to the north of the main car park, there is an iron age hillfort, it is still on the edge of the Cotswold Escarpment, so it has stunning views (same as from the car park!) But, there's a really informative board about archaeological digs & findings here. Easily accessible walking paths, and worth a read

Pub that sells TT landlord and Mars bars 👌

Great pub with friendly staff and landlady/landlord. Great pit stop from the common or other walks

Super fun descent running down an ancient track lined with beech trees. Although often full of leaves there is loose beneath providing some traction. The bottom of the track is almost always wet with a small stream running down it.

This unique looking coffee and wine bar set alongside the Stroudwater Navigation is the perfect place to stop and refuel on your afternoon stroll. Its shabby-chic interior and picturesque terrace overlooking the canal are the perfect location to wash down a delicious beverage or lunchtime snack.

As you emerge from the woods you gain panoramic views of the fields and Slad Valley below which forms one of five valleys surrounding the town of Stroud. These valley views are what the five valleys are famous for, and popularised in Lauri Lee's 'Cider with Rosie'

A stunning bit of trail, especially when dry in the summer. Gets a bit boggy after prolonged rain. A perfect way to mix up a ride and connect some great roads!
