Uley Bury Walk
The Gloucestershire village of Uley sits in a scenic location in the Cotswolds escarpment.
This circular walk from the village climbs to the Iron Age hill fort and viewpoint at Uley Bury which lies just to the north west of the settlement. The ancient fort stands at a height of 750 feet (235 metres), providing some glorious views over the Severn Vale.
You can continue the walk by picking up the Cotswold Way on the northern side of the hill. Follow the trail west and it will take you to another fine viewpoint at Cam Peak near Dursley.
