Walking the Cotswold Way, Chipping Campden to Stanton

We are beginning the Cotswold Way. It's through one of the most beautiful parts of England. We are leaving Chipping Campden to walk to the village of Stanton. Come with us to see what walking 164km or 103mi from village to village through this area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is really like. The walk was organised for us by Macs Adventure.

Very enjoyable. Nicely filmed and narrated too. At 1033 I saw a Marmalade Hoverfly which like other hoverflies are important pollinators alongside bees. You also saw a good range of butterflies which was nice to see. Thank you.

Thanks glad you enjoyed it. I will check out the Marmalade Hoverfly it sounds interesting.

You must have been so tired after your first day of walking. Gorgeous scenery. Thanks for bringing us along.

[@GeoRick]

Yes was very tired. Lucky we had a bath to soak our tired legs in 🙂

Seeing all of that grain makes me want to do the "Gladiator Thing" (running hand over the top of the grain). :P Cool looking butterflies.

[@GeoRick]

Yes I know what you mean, love that movie. We will be in Tuscany in a few months time I must remember to do that if I see a field 🙂

[@Komikino]

Loved this video. I've been to many of those areas and as my fiance has a home on the edge of the Cotswolds, I hope to be walking those trails often. You are a lovely couple. Looking forward to the next video.

Blackberries are an autumn fruit, ripe around early September.

[@GeoRick]

We will have to try walking in September sometime. Thanks for the information.

[@AntonvonGütwrench]

What fun! Planning a trip for next year. Are you currently on trail or was this a bit earlier this Spring? Happy walking and looking forward to the next installment!

[@GeoRick]

We had a major problem along the way as you will see in an upcoming episode. We are returning to the Cotswalds in 6 weeks time to complete the walk. We are sure you will have a great time next year. Best of luck with your walk.

Yes, that lift up part of the stile is for dogs

[@GeoRick]

Thanks, we were a little puzzled by it at first.

[@BrentSmithsimrebel]

Wow had to break this up for 2 days lol

[@GeoRick]

Yes it's the longest we have made the ones that follow are a little shorter.

[@anthonycliftonjones2564]

Always walk on the other side of the road facing traffic rather than back to the traffic.

[@GeoRick]

Yes that's the best on country roads.

[@anthonycliftonjones2564]

I am enjoying your walk along the CW. It is great to watch and listen to your good natured banter, information and obvious love of nature and animals.

[@GeoRick]

Thanks Anthony glad you are enjoying them.
