A warm welcome to the Wiltshire, Gloucestershire and north Somerset GOC web pages.
Where we walk
From the rolling Cotswolds with their quaint, mellow,honey-stone villages and grazing sheep, to the fern-draped combes of the Mendips and the mysterious broad open chalk downlands of Wiltshire, intersected by winding rivers including the mighty Severn, the upper Thames and the Bristol Avon flowing through lush pastures in their valleys, along with the heritage-rich Forest of Dean and a short but extremely varied coastline. We have historic cities such as Bristol, Bath, and Gloucester, the newer but no less interesting railway centre of Swindon and elegant Cheltenham, along with many well known, and a few less famous, though equally beautiful, country towns and villages. In short this area could be described as a walker's paradise!

When we walk
The Wiltshire, Gloucestershire and north Somerset group generally walk on the 1st and 3rd Sunday of each month. From time to time we have joint walks with neighbouring GOC groups. During the summer months we have some additional weekday and evening events. The Events section below and our Walk Planner page gives a lot more information on the walk dates and areas where walks are due to take place.
