With the exception of a very short section near the start, all the climbing to around 1,000ft is gentle. Tracks are in evidence all the way and the variety of countryside and magnificent views at the early and later stages make this a very rewarding 'near stroll'. The walk provides an escape on poor days and a grand experience on hot days.

The new owner of the estate has created an 'Interpretation' Chalet at the start of the walk with information about flora, fauna and geology of the area. There is a wall map showing the main tracks and paths with detail of the deer fences, all of which have walker's gates. It is so satisfying to find an estate that welcomes walkers and naturalists.
