You can also get a map of the walk from our map bank. This is available from the Rambling/Walking category page on the website. It is called 'Shenington - Epwell v3 4 miles' or similar title.

Ramble start time changed to 10.15 a.m. on Wed 7 June

Shenington to Epwell ONLY 4 miles

I hope it will make it easier for you to miss traffic problems by starting the ramble at 10.15 a.m.

This is a wonderful ramble in the Cotswolds. There are many stiles. It is undulating. Steep in parts. It is more arduous than most of U3A walks. It is a lollipop shape. So the last two miles is the reverse of the first two miles. Hope to see you there. Allow at least 40 minutes to get there from Warwick.
