Terrain:

Terrain: A truly rewarding walk that blends village paths with an invigorating hill climb. The terrain is a mix of well-made trails, grassy field paths, and the natural, often rough, ground of the hillside. The walk is characterized by a steep climb to the summit of the isolated hill. Expect paths to be uneven and muddy in places, especially on the fields or after rain. Sturdy, comfortable, and waterproof hiking boots with good grip are essential for both you and your dog.

Accessibility: This walk is classified as Moderate difficulty. The steep climb to the hilltop and the presence of uneven field paths make it unsuitable for those with mobility issues or pushchairs.
