Overview

A delightful circular walk through fields, meadows and beautiful woodland. We'll be walking from The Windhover pub along The Brampton Valley Way into Harlestone Firs, which provides some welcome shade. Then we shall be walking across the golf course into Church and Chapel Brampton before making our way back across fields and meadows to our starting point.

We'll be meeting at the car park opposite The Windhover pub although you may like to park at The Windhover if you are planning on going in for a drink or a meal after the walk. Miller's Yard Cafe is also nearby. The walk will be on established paths and tracks although some of the paths through Harlestone Firs are uneven. There are 4 stiles towards the end of the walk and the path here is a little overgrown. Expect to see some varied and interesting views
