Route description

An evening stroll from Kelston village to the top of Kelston Roundhill.

We start the walk in Kelston village slowly climbing the ridge towards Pendean Farm and Dean Hill. We then take the Cotswold Way towards Kelston Roundhill, climbing to the top to take in the views towards Bristol and Bath and (hopefully!) enjoy the summer sun. We descend the hill via a lane back towards Kelston where there will be an opportunity to socialise in the Old Crown Inn.
