ウィックワーのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

This takes longer than you think if you spend the time to enjoy the surroundings!

Slippery, even in June - take care over the stones & use the roots of the trees as hand-holds

Gorgeous little Boardwalk in the woods! And (weirdly!) part of the reason I love hiking in Lower Woods N.R. - I'd been here about 5 times before, if not more, but I'd never seen this little boardwalk! There are so many interconnecting paths & always a new route to explore.

watch out for woodland clearances in the south because of Ash Dieback, can look like you're on another planet with the trees that used to be searching for light, now bathed in it. The river crossing itself can be a bit treacherous in winter or after any decent spell of rain. If I didn't have the big metal cleat in my shoes I'm sure I never would've made it up the bank.

Tourist information and public toilets in old market town building with view of Chipping Sodbury high street.

War memorial with view of high street. THE ORIGINAL CHIPPING SODBURY MARKET CROSS WAS ERECTED ABOUT THE YEAR 1553 NEAR THIS SITE. IT WAS FINALLY REMOVED TO THE PRESBYTERY, REMAINING THERE FOR MANY YEARS. THE EXISTING PORTIONS WERE RETURNED TO THE TOWN, WHEN IT WAS RESTORED AND RE-ERECTED BY PUBLIC SUBSCRIPTION, IN THE YEAR 1920.

Chipping Sodbury is a pretty market town located at the foot of the southern Cotswold escarpment. In medieval times, it was an important market centre due to its position at the crossroads on the main route between Bristol, Oxford and London. These days, the town remains vibrant and has plenty of independent shops, restaurants, cafes, bars and places to stay.

A great and fun track that is a great way to get into Lower Wood Nature Reserve or continue along Vinney Lane
