Haresfield Beacon within the Cotswolds offers far reaching views across the Severn estuary towards the Forest of Dean and Brecon Beacons.  The walk will take us along open hilltops and woodland paths. 

When I walked the 102 miles of the Cotswold Way in 2021 this stretch was one of my favourites. 

Approx. 9 miles 

Good level of fitness required, hilly walk.

Over 18s only.

No dogs, except assistance dogs.
