The Battlefields Trail is a long distance footpath running 20 miles through beautiful countryside in the heart of England. The trail starts in Chipping Warden, Northamptonshire and ends in Kineton, Warwickshire. The trail links three of Britain's most important battlefields:
Edgcote (1469) in Northamptonshire
Cropredy Bridge (1644) in Oxfordshire
Edgehill (1642) in Warwickshire
You can tackle the trail in three parts, or all in one go. As you visit these battlefields, you will be following the general route taken by King Charles and his entourage as they rode towards Edgehill on the morning of the battle.
The trail is waymarked throughout, and there are information boards on the route
This isn't a quick cache and dash although you can park in either Warmington or Arlescote and walk along the footpaths to it in about half an hour. You could also make up a circular walk from either of these villages going to this cache and a number of others in the area placed by Marrowbone or try the whole Battlefields trail if you want a longer walk!
