There’s something truly relaxing about walking near water during the summer months — the gentle sounds, the cooler air, and the sense of calm it brings. It’s the perfect way to unwind, stretch your legs, and give your pup some well-earned outdoor time.
This scenic circular route through Benyon’s Enclosure and around Kiln Pond offers exactly that. With tranquil woodland paths, peaceful water views, and plenty of open space, it’s an ideal walk for both humans and dogs to enjoy. The trail is relatively flat and accessible, making it a great choice for walkers of all ages and fitness levels.
Your pups are very welcome on this route, and they’ll love exploring the varied terrain. Just keep in mind that after rain, the path can get a bit muddy — so waterproof shoes are a good idea!
While this walk is beautiful now in summer, it’s also a treat in spring when wildflowers are in bloom, adding colour and charm to your surroundings. It makes a fun outing with your four-legged friend, and offers a lovely escape into nature.
Top tip: Bring water for both you and your pup, and enjoy a slow-paced, mindful wander through this peaceful part of the countryside.
