Local Dog Walks

East Harptree Forest
Found This A Few Years Ago With My Late Husband And Now Go There With My Daughter. Together We Have For Dogs. Easy Walking With A Few Tracks Off To The Sides. It Was Only By Chance That We Found Out It Has An Old Chimney There. It Is Called The Smitham Chimney And Was Used Many Years Ago For Smelting Lead And Zinc. It Is Almost Surrounded By Water. Beautiful Array Of Trees And Flora Abound.

Black Down Burrington Coombe
Slight Walk Up To The Top Of The Hill But The Views Are Stunning From The Top. If You Take The Left Path Once Up The Top, You Can Walk Down To Cheddar Gorge Or You Can Take The Right Path And Walk Down Into The Woods To Rowberrow Warren And Dolebury Warren. Livestock On Route And Can Get Very Muddy In The Winter Due To The Horses And Cows Churning Up The Mud Making It Very Hard To Walk Up The Hill. Lovely Walk During The Summer. We Often Spend All Day Walking There And My Two Cockers Love It!
