The Acres Down and Canadian War Memorial Walk is a fun walk that offers varied scenery, ranging from forest to grassy paths to streams. You may see a horse or two as well! The paths along this route are generally easy to follow due to the lack of bogs! Kids will enjoy this one, too—if they are big enough to handle the 9.3 km distance.
Route Description for Acres Down and Canadian War Memorial
The Acres Down and Canadian War Memorial Walk takes you along an easy-to-follow route with a lack of bogs and stiles. You will have to negotiate some gates and cross over some bridges, but it’s nothing too crazy. However, during wetter months of the year, like most walks in England, sections of the path can get muddy, so come prepared with proper footwear. On that same note, this is a good path for winter walking as the mud doesn’t get too intense. If you want to make sure you follow the exact route mapped out, we suggest bringing a GPS along as you will pass some forks and junctions.
