Top Spring walks in Cheltenham and Gloucester


Our top picks

With Spring on the horizon, and the Cotswolds on our doorstep, here’s out top Spring walks to enjoy.

Leckhampton Loop

This picturesque walk takes you around the stunning Leckhampton Hill, and even explores some parts of the 102-mile Cotswold Way (don’t worry, this loop is only 4.5 miles). The views are incredible, and you’ll also see some Iron-Age remains!

Top tip: You can easily access the start of the walk by the 51 bus, so it’s perfect for if you haven’t got a car.

Cirencester park

If you fancy an easy walk with no hills or stiles, the circular walk through Cirencester Park is ideal.

After your relaxing stroll, Cirencester is a great town to explore, with plenty of cute coffee shops and independent shops.

Robinswood Hill Country Park

Located on the edge of the city of Gloucester, Robinswood Hill country park is a great place to explore, and super easy to get to.

There are various different routes to follow, so you can choose a walk to suit you.

Cleeve Hill

The tallest point in the whole county, Cleeve Hill sits above Cheltenham and offers stunning views across Gloucestershire on a clear spring day.

Did we mention there’s also lambs on this hill during this time of year?!

Top tip: The Rising Sun pub on the hill is a great spot to enjoy a drink and watch the sunset.

Broadway

Broadway Tower is an iconic landmark within the Cotswolds. It’s set within 200 acres of parkland, so there’s plenty to explore. Broadway itself is also worth visiting to get a taste of a picture-perfect Cotswold village.
