Table of contents

Experience a fusion of scenery on the Bridgewater Monument North Trail, which takes you through woodland and opens up to stunning countryside scenery stretching into the horizon. Anyone who has walked this trail before can’t help but rave about the beautiful views. Some say this is even the best walk for views in all of the Chilterns! And there’s only one way to find out if this is true: do it yourself!

Route Description for Bridgewater Monument North Trail

The Bridgewater Monument North Trail in the Chilterns unveils stunning views while only forcing you to take on a few isolated climbs. Be prepared for the last ascent of the hike—that one is definitely the toughest of this loop. Setting out from the car park, the walk takes you past the Bridgewater Monument. Spend some time taking pictures before moving on! Shortly after the monument, you’ll veer onto Duncombe Ter to pass through some trees before entering fields. Continue looping around through a mix of scenery before the steep climb at the end. This area has poor cell reception, so it may be helpful to download an offline map before you go to ensure you follow the correct route!

Getting to the Bridgewater Monument North Trail Trailhead

To get to the start of the Bridgewater Monument North Trail, head to Berkhamsted before continuing to the Ashridge Estate Visitor Centre car park, which is where your walk begins!
