Overview

This is a 4 mile circular walk from Northend, passing Fenny Compton before climbing gradually, except for the last 300 metres, which is steep grass, to the Dassett Hills. On a clear day the view is spectacular over the counties of Warwickshire, Oxfordshire, Northamptonshire, and on a very clear day as far as the Malvern Hills.

There is a steep descent back to Northend. There are 3 stiles and potentially mud unless the weather improves.
