Bath & NE Somerset, Gloucestershire, S Gloucestershire, Worcestershire
The Trail meanders along the western edge of the Cotswold Hills, mainly following the often-wooded top of this limestone escarpment, from where there are extensive views over the Severn Vale to the Malverns and the distant hills of the Mendips and the Welsh borders. It descends from time to time to visit attractive villages nestling under the shelter of the edge. It crosses stone-walled farming countryside, passing villages and country houses built from the local limestone, and many sites of archaeological interest.

The waymarked Frome Valley Walkway (18 miles and on OS mapping) provides a link from Old Sodbury via Frenchay to the confluence with the Avon in Bristol. The waymarked Jubilee Way (South Gloucestershire) (16 miles and on OS mapping) is another link from Old Sodbury but ending at the Severn Bridge.

The LDWA National Trails Register offers certificates for completers of several British National Trails.
