Paths of poetry …

… Roads taken: the Gloucestershire footpaths that were the making of Robert Frost | Walking holidays | The Guardian. (Hat tip, Rus Bowden.)

The idea of “less-travelled” trails has a particular appeal right now – and in late May we met just one dog walker in two days of hiking. Exploring the routes is easy thanks to the Windcross Paths Group, who maintain and signpost routes the poets are known to have walked. They publish guides to two circular routes – Poets’ Paths I and II – each about eight miles, and both now marked on the OS Landranger 149 and 162 maps.
