Shame you can’t actually go inside !

pretty impressive neolithic burial mound

The views from the top of the hill on the approach to the Long Barrow are well worth the calf and thigh burning walk up the steep path. Magnificent landscape.

Oof there are some punchy climbs around here

Belas Knap is a neolithic long barrow managed by English Heritage. The Cotswold Way national trail runs right past the entrance.

Nice views from this monument down over Hailes Abbey and the Cotswold’s. It's at 269 m which gives good views to the north and west.

Now you have made it up Salters Lane, stop to take in the beautiful views. If you are heading down towards Temple Guiting, watch for gravel in the turn at the bottom of the road.

Extremely steep up castle Street Winchcombe

Really cool site - a Neolithic long barrow at the top of the hill, with a plaque detailing some history. Estimated to have been built in 3000 BC. Fairly easy to access from the pull in on Charlton Abbots road, or if you don't fancy the climb go straight on instead of following the road round to the left just before the parking.

Whether you climbed up Snowshill from Broadway or took the easy route via Broadway Tower, take a moment to enjoy the views over the Cotswold peneplain.

I have parked in the public car park just beyond the Cleeve Hill golf club car park and walked in a big loop around Cleeve Hill to Belas Knap and back. The car park is busy with dog walkers so less of a risk I guess.

The car park for Belas Knap is about half a mile away. It is notorious for vehicle break-ins. Do not leave anything valuable in your car. I'm not paranoid. However, there are too many break-ins which could be attributed to opportunist. This car park is, without doubt, under criminal surveillance when the break-ins occur. You have been warned!

Belas Knap is an example of a Neolithic long barrow, with a false entrance and side chambers. Excavated in 1863 and 1865, the remains of 31 people were found in the chambers. The English Heritage owned site is free to enter.

English Heritage site. The way how the burial chambers were restored certainly does not resemble the original but you get a good idea what the place may once have looked like.

This is one of the most dramatic and scenic parts of the Cotswold Way. Along this section, you get wide views over Cheltenham and beyond.
