Family-friendly walks in and around Cirencester: Siccaridge Wood

Siccaridge Wood in the Frome Valley is about half a mile west of Sapperton, adjacent to the Sapperton Valley and Daneway Banks nature reserves, next to the Thames and Severn Canal.

Access to the reserve is either from the canal towpath or from the road adjacent to the Daneway Inn.

Siccaridge Wood is part of the Golden Valley Wildlife Way, which includes Strawberry Banks, Daneway Banks and Three Groves Wood nature reserves.

There is a lovely circular walk from the Daneway Road and back again. The track is fairly narrow and there is a steep pathway halfway so may not be suitable for buggies but a nice distance for school-aged children.

The Daneway Inn is open for takeaway drinks, food and ice cream. Social distancing rules apply.
