Overview

A lovely, gently undulating walk through the wider Castle Howard estate.

We head out of Welburn towards New River Bridge, where we catch glimpses of Castle Howard and a views of the Howard family mausoleum.

From there we pass Bog Hall to pick up the Centenary Way back into the woods passing the sculpture 'Four Faces' and the majestic King Oak, before heading back into Welburn.

The walk is mostly on good paths but can be muddy in places. Hopefully the bluebells will be in full bloom for the walk.

This walk is dog friendly, however there is one field that usually has cows in it en route.
