We enjoyed so many incredible views especially on Cleeve Hill! We saw a fox, hare, squirrel, deer, and pheasant along the trail. There were many historical landmarks: Belas Knap, Hailes Abbey, Broadway Tower, Crickley Hill, the site of The Battle of Lansdown, and Ulley Bury among many others. Ferns, wild flowers, and wild garlic added to our enjoyment. We visited wonderful and hospitable pubs such as The Old Crown Inn, The Old Spot Inn, and The Vine Tree Inn. We dined at incredible restaurants along the trail: Good Food Kitchen in Wotton-Under-Edge and StarBistro in Ullenwood. Hayles Fruit Farm is a lovely place to camp, and their apple cider is outstanding! This is one of the best hiking experiences we’ve had! Note: Take the new route when leaving Tormarton as the old route had not been kept up and was also sketchy.
