With a huge selection of possible routes surrounding our centre, ranging in distance, there’s something suitable for every group. Explore and make the most of the stunning surroundings and learn some important skills.

We can supply you with some suggested routes to take in the scenery, or you can use the provided maps and route cards to plan your own route.

Suggested routes include:

  • Hike Route 1: 7.9km, approx. 2 hr 30 mins, leaving Woodhouse Park, following footpaths towards Tockington, continuing past Olveston, Old Down and meandering back to finish on site. Includes some small sections on very quiet roads.
  • Hike Route 2: 3.3km, approx. 1 hr 15 mins, leaving Woodhouse Park, using the footpaths heading towards Tockington Village and back through farmers fields.

Blank maps and route cards are included to create your own routes.
