Guiting Power Circular Walk Description
If you are after a leisurely stroll with picturesque views of the surrounding Gloucestershire countryside, then the Guiting Power Circular Walk is a great option to spend an afternoon on the trails. The trail will see you leave the charming village behind as you traverse the farmland to the northwest, working through the peaceful stretch of woodland terrain known as Guiting Wood that is dissected by a meandering stream. From there, you will turn to the east and cut across the open fields to arrive at the village of Kineton before turning back to the south on the return to Guiting Power. Both of the villages along the route have pubs where you can stop in for some mid/post-walk refreshments.
