S4, Ep 2: "The Wild Boys" - Day 2 of walking the Gloucestershire Way long distance path in England. Day 2 in search of wild boars in the Forest of Dean via sculptures, pike fishing and famous pie pubs

Walk This Way - discovering Long Distance Paths of the UK

For series 4 of my podcast about long distance paths and walking in the UK, I tackle the Gloucestershire Way in the Spring/Summer of 2022. A 100 mile walk through the beautiful English countryside. This episode covers day 2 of the walk from Parkend in the Forest of Dean. to Boxbush, a 13 mile stretch of the walk. I'm joined by Andy as we search for wild boars and encounter a sculpture trail, some excited lambs and rolling hills.
I'm trying to complete a self contained LDP in each of the 38 counties of England. Gloucestershire is my 7th county. I'm hoping that my podcast series will inspire others in the UK to walk a long distance path (LDP) - there are over 1,500 routes to choose from, check these out via www.ldwa.org.uk for more information
