As spring is in the air, why not make the most of the milder days and explore the scenic walks on the Estate?
The Estate is home to a variety of beautiful walks, perfect for all abilities and interests.
Whether you`re looking for a gentle stroll through peaceful woodland, a longer hike with historic landmarks, or a dog-friendly route with open space to roam, there’s a walk for you.
For history lovers, some trails take you past ancient sites, including a Roman burial tumulus and an old Roman road. If you prefer unspoilt countryside, you can explore meadows that have remained unchanged for centuries, filled with ancient oak trees and high hedgerows.
Walkers looking for woodland trails can enjoy routes through Downs Wood and beyond, with paths offering views of Rougham Church. If you`re after a stile-free walk, some routes follow green lanes and quiet public roads, making them accessible for all.
Whichever route you choose, you`ll experience the natural beauty and rich history of the estate. Please stick to designated paths and respect the land, nature, and residential areas along the way.
More information can be found in the link in our bio.
