Home page > Walks photos <		southcotswoldramblers.org.uk Thrupp to the Heavens 27 February 2007 Heavens Horns and Wasa Wasa is the intriguing title of Bernard's walk .
		The layby at Thrupp, our meeting place, and Bernard leads us off up the hill .
		Looking back across the valley to Bagpath .
		On reaching the Heavens we enjoy the rather murky view of Stroud .
		Which doesn't improve as we head round the hill .
		We then descend through the woods towards the Horns . .
		Where the downhill slope becomes very slippery .
		And the fields are a sea of mud .
		We look at the view back down the Horns .
		And spot this stream cascading down the hillside .
		We climb up another difficult path .
		It's easier on four legs - he says .
		The final few yards .
		And we reach Wasa Wasa .
		Looking back down over Stroud .
		On to Middle Lypiatt - is the clock wrong or are we running late? .
		Going down the hill we pass a roadside spring .
		And some colourful spring flowers .
		And we are now looking down into Toadsmoor .
		We now face another hazardous descent .
		Which becomes a serious challenge, but we get down safely .
		Passing this house with its garden stream .
		Then walking past Toadsmoor Lake .
		An interesting garden ornament .
		And a pretty window .
		As we head through Toadsmoor .
		Passing this woodland fungus - yes the photo is up the right way .
		As we head along the side of the valley .
		Bernard leading the charge for home .
		Tried to get this fellow to join the Ramblers - might become a beautiful princess - please post possible names on the message board .
		Now we walk along the canal .
	With the river Frome on our other side .
	And pass through Brimscombe Port .
	On our way back to the cars .

		As you can see, we thoroughly enjoy getting to know the South Cotswolds. We try to keep fit and succeed in having a good old chat. If you are interested in coming with us, see our walks programme and ring the leader if you have any questions about a particular walk. After two or three walks we hope you will then want to join the group as part of the national Ramblers' Association.
