Devised by Cheltenham Borough Council, the Cheltenham Circular Walk follows a route of approx 26 miles and gives wonderful views of the Cotswolds escarpment. The walk starts and ends at Pittville Park and passes Cheltenham Racecourse and Dowdeswell Reservoir. The Cheltenham Cleeve Vale Rotary Club organise an annual Cheltenham Circular Challenge to raise money for various good causes.
The Cheltenham Circular Caching Challenge of more than 100 caches follows this walk. It starts at Cheltenham Race Course with #1, and the caches are numbered clockwise. But you could of course start and stop anywhere along the route.
If you can't manage it in a day, then why not stay around the area. Cheltenham Borough Council have a tourist information office that will help you with a number of things, including accommodation.
As you work your way round the Cheltenham Circular Caching Challenge, don't forget to collect numbers for the bonus cache.
Good Luck.
