		As we stand in Cam Peak car park it is with a certain amount of trepidition that we look uphill . .
		But not to worry Maurice and Dave have devised a walk that takes us round the bottom of the hill . .
		Passing through a farmyard . .
		Before heading up the valley towards Uley . .
		Mike stops to examine a horse box - could make a good camper van! .. .
		They know how to welcome visitors round here . .
		But we still stop for coffee at the Millennium Green - guess who won the race for the seats . .
		We continue to circumnavigate Uley . .
		A bit of encouragement for back marker Bill . .
		As we walk in the direction of Owlpen . .
		But a change of direction takes us over a stream . .
		And into Uley village . .
		We then start a gentle climb up Uley Bury . .
		Pausing to look back over the village . .
		And stopping for lunch at the top. While others eat and drink Dave carefully considers his apple . .
Some sleep, and others chat and look at the view over Downham Hill . .
Then we head off downhill . .
Reaching the bottom with views over the Severn Vale . .
We avoid an impassable field of maize by walking through some horse paddocks . .
Then make use of a smart new bridge which has recently replaced a decaying one . .
	Walking round the bottom of Cam Long Down . .
	Before heading up the slope . .
	To this point where Dave invites us to pick a path . .
	Some head up Cam Peak where they stand on top . .
	And watch those who have opted for the easier route return to the car park . .
	.
	Photos and captions thanks again to Richard. . .
	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.
