A figure of eight walk from Lechlade-on-Thames [33]
Here the access road, also a public footpath, is known as Bowmoor Reach.
After leaving Lechlade, the route joins the long distance Thames and Severn Way and passes the southern edge of Bowmoor Lake. Turning north, and looping around the northern edge of the lake, the Thames and Severn Way is re-joined and followed to the banks of the River Thames and back to Lechlade. Slightly over 5 miles.
