Chipping Campden and Dover's Hill | Cotswold Way Trail

On a hot summer day in August we took this walk along the very first stretch of the Cotswold Way from the Market Hall in Chipping Campden to Dover's Hill via The Lynches Wood.

Dover’s Hill is owned and managed by the National Trust and is a natural amphitheatre with great views over the Vale of Evesham. It was also the site of the original English Olympic Games, started by Robert Dover in 1612, and now hosts the Cotswold Olimpick Games with its quirky events like shin-kicking.
