After a long descent through the Ebworth estate woodland (the Cotswold Commons and Beechwoods National Nature Reserve) we climb Sheepscombe Common with fine views over Sheepscombe and Painswick, and then continue into woodland and farmland with views over Cranham to the Severn and Wales. On the return we walk with the start of the Painswick Stream with a number of pools.
Toilets available at Ebworth.
