Careful on the golf course, stay to the edges. Fantastic views over Gloucester and stroud. If you want an express route down take Stockley and enjoy rocketing into Upton st. Leonards.

Parking at Daisy bank Road at the bottom is a good place to start. Be aware of MTB trails in the woods!

The Painswick Rococo Gardens are the only Rococo Gardens in the UK, full of little follies, different types of gardens, sculptures and mazes. If you are in the area already, well worth checking them out.

Dowdeswell Reservoir is a scenic stretch of water on the outskirts of Cheltenham. From the reservoir, you step straight into Dowdeswell Woods; a nature reserve that’s home to many species of plants and animals. Keep a lookout for birds including coot, moorhen, great crested grebe and little grebe.

A country park owned jointly by the National Trust and Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust, there is no end to the beautiful views, hiking trails and wildlife spotting options here. The hill lies on the western edge of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the Cotswolds Way and the Gloucestershire Way long-distance paths both cross the hill. Bluebells, adders, birds and vibrant woodland can all be found on the hill. It's stunning throughout the year with every season bringing something new.

View over the Severn from Painswick Beacon - you can see May Hill and even further.

Great views and hence, usually lots of people and dogs to avoid. The climb up from Cheltenham Road is short and punchy.
