Visitor viewThis is the riverside out-and-back, not a climb to the hilltop fort or a circuit of Dunmallard Hill. Turn at the seating area and return the same way. Toilets and refreshments are in Pooley Bridge. Keep dogs close around wildlife and the riverbank.

Before bookingCheck the gravel surface after rain and judge it against your buggy's wheels; ‘for many’ is not a universal guarantee.

Policies, opening times and services can change. Confirm anything essential directly before making a special journey or booking.
