Cotswold Way Self Guided Walking Holiday



The Cotswold Way is a recent addition to the Long Distance Footpaths when formally launched in May 2007 covering a distance of 102 miles starting at the north end in Chipping Camden and finishing in the south at the historic city of Bath.

Your journey along the path changes at every corner as you traverse along the high route sections taking in the excellent views on offer before returning down to the valley to visit the many farming communities and picturesque Cotswold stone built villages such as Winchcombe, Painswick and Wotton-Under-Edge and many others.

Be sure to take time out to visit the many historic points the trail has to offer in the way of churches, roman villas abbeys and battle sites. Wealthy manor houses are another feature of the trail mostly paid for with the wealth achieved from the Cotswold sheep market.
