Gloucestershire means the Cotswolds, with stone villages in the valleys and an escarpment looking over the Severn Vale. Easy loops link Bourton-on-the-Water with the Slaughters, Bibury with the Coln Valley and Stow-on-the-Wold with Bourton Downs. Along the edge you can climb Cleeve Hill, the highest point of the Cotswolds, as well as Painswick Beacon and Leckhampton Hill, and cyclists head into the Forest of Dean.
Stories go back to the Neolithic long barrow at Belas Knap and Hetty Pegler's Tump, the ramparts of Uley Bury and Crickley Hill, the weavers' cottages of Arlington Row, and Laurie Lee's Slad valley.
Each has its own page, with the routes that start nearby.
