The walk starts from The Outwoods car park, we walk through woodland paths to Woodhouse Eaves.  The route takes us up to Windmill Hill. We then follow the paths and bridleways which surround Beacon Hill, taking in the lovely views of the Leicestershire countryside. We return through the woods back to the car park.
