Join Andrew for this 9.5 mile walk covering the Golden Valley and villages of Wick, Upton Cheney, Swineford, North Stoke and Bitton. We will begin by in Swineford before ascending to North Stoke before continuing to Upton Cheney and Wick, where we will most likely eat lunch. We will then walk parts of the Monarch's Way to Bitton before returning to Swineford. There are some lovely views on this route. There will be an optional pub stop at the end of the walk.

Dogs are welcome to join us on this event but we do ask the following:
Please appreciate the fact that not everyone is a dog owner or lover- especially when we stop to eat
Please ensure you adhere to the Countryside Code at all times - see (Keeping Dogs Under Effective Control)
If your dog is uncontrolled and strays in open land frightening other animals or livestock, the leader is supported by the OutdoorLads board of trustees to ask you to leave the event as this is not acceptable behaviour
We cannot guarantee that this route is dog friendly - there may be styles to carry your dog across.
Your dog needs to have the stamina to keep up with the group. This may be an issue on hot days
