My Actifit Report Card: September 25 2025

4 months ago

My last walk took me along the beautiful Cotswold Way, a stunning trail that stretches through the picturesque villages of the Cotswolds. Starting from the charming town of Bath, which is famous for its Roman baths and Georgian architecture, I ventured through rolling hills and quaint stone cottages.

As I walked, I was captivated by the breathtaking landscapes; the golden hues of the fields contrasted beautifully with the deep green of the hedgerows. I passed through several idyllic villages, including Box, where the stone houses have a unique charm. There was a lovely little café there, and I couldn’t resist stopping for a slice of homemade cake and a cup of tea. The café owner, an elderly gentleman named Mr. Harris, shared fascinating stories about the history of Box, including its involvement during the English Civil War.

Continuing my journey, I encountered fellow walkers—some were locals enjoying a weekend stroll, while others were tourists like myself, eager to explore the area. I struck up a conversation with a couple from Manchester who were hiking the entire Cotswold Way. We chatted about our favorite historical sites in England and exchanged recommendations for future walks.

One of the highlights of the walk was reaching the stunning viewpoint at Dover’s Hill, where I could see the rolling Cotswold countryside stretching out before me. The air was fresh, and the sense of history surrounding me was palpable, considering that this area has been inhabited for thousands of years.

As the day drew to a close, I felt a deep appreciation for both the natural beauty and the rich history of the Cotswolds. It was a perfect blend of exploration, learning, and connecting with others who share a love for walking and history. I can't wait for my next adventure!
