Walking Books 2024
This highly detailed full colour guide has full route details on 58 double page spreads with inter-relating text and corresponding coloured sketch maps based upon OS mapping. The guide divides the route into nine sections, each allocated a chapter. The navigation text is written in short step-by-step paragraphs each allocated an identifying letter which is also shown on the map, plus the grid reference. There are also 75 colour photographs depicting places of interest along the way, GPS waypoints and details of places of interest. There are alternative route directions to visit Cirencester and Tetbury.
We would recommend this route and the guide, not just because of the joy of walking this varied and rewarding route, but because by doing so you are helping a very worthy cause.
