Overview

This is a circular walk from Castle Howard Car Park. Leaving the CP we head to the Gate House then walk along a track to Low and High Gaterley. Then heading past Easthorpe Hall we walk along the edge of Coneysthorpe Banks Wood before descending to Coneysthorpe. We then pick up a track at the side of the road back to the CP. The walk is just under 9 miles with about 700 ft of ascent.
