Thornham WalksThornham Walks

The 12 miles of waymarked footpaths within the Thornham Estate wind through beautiful countryside taking visitors into ancient parkland, woodland, farmland and water meadows. The Walks also include a surfaced path suitable for pushchairs and wheelchairs, which leads for half a mile to the Thornham Walled Garden, passing on your way the renovated hermitage and pets' cemetery. Other trails may not be suitable for wheelchairs. Electric all terrain wheelchairs are available. See our web site for annual programme of events, or pick up an events leaflet from the car park.
