- Dog Notes:
The Quantock Hills, including Wind Down in Somerset, are fantastic for dog walking. Dogs can often be off-lead on the open heathland, but ensure excellent recall due to free-roaming ponies, sheep, deer, and other walkers. Be mindful of adders in warmer months. During bird nesting season (March-July), keep dogs to paths. Bring water, as natural sources can be unreliable on the hills.
