Cute little church! I'm FAR from religious, but the old buildings are beautiful, it's worth a peek

This stunning valley is a great example of what makes the Cotswolds so special. Until committing to the travelling the length of bridleway you wouldn't know it exists, with no road running through it. The valley has steep sides lined with broad-leaved trees giving it a remote feeling. In the summer the sun sets at the bottom of the valley, blanketing the land in a warm glow.

This is a lovely walk through serene countryside between Tresham and Alderley. A wide bridleway will lead you through rolling green hills dotted with sheep and trees and epic views down the valley.

Great climb. Save your energy as it goes on for a while, getting progressively steeper. There's a brief respite about 80% of the way up, but the final 50m are a killer!

Nice wooded climb or descent. One of the slightly less strenuous ways up onto the Cotswolds escarpment.
