Cotswolds

Wiltshire, United Kingdom

4.5 (0)

Overview

Protected area in south central England. It sits in high or exposed country, where the weather changes fast and proper boots and waterproofs matter even in summer.

Why visit: Lakeland fells, Snowdonia, the Highlands and the moors — open access land you can legally walk almost anywhere in.

Things to do

›Take a paper map — phone signal fails in the valleys
›Check the mountain weather forecast, not the town one
›Follow the Countryside Code and shut every gate
›Start early: the light goes by 4 PM in winter
