    The Norton and Auburn Hill Walk is a laid back adventure just outside of the Howardian Hills that will allow you to experience both city and countryside walking. While out on the trail, you will pass through the town of Norton-on-Derwent, before looping around the countryside for views of the Howardian Hills. Make sure to keep your dog on a lead and keep an eye on children, as the city portions of the walk can be busy.

    Located just to the east of the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this walking route offers a nice mixture of city walkways and open countryside, allowing you to feel the hustle and bustle of town but also reconnect with the outdoors.
