Here is a collection of 20 tried and tested circular walks ranging in length between 2.5 and 8.5 miles. They include crucial dog-walking factors such as livestock, stiles and roads, with warnings in advance when a lead is necessary and when it's safe for your dog to run free. The routes pass by a number of quintessential English villages, many of which boast welcoming, dog-friendly pubs, along with ancient churches, remote hamlets, stunning views, idyllic cottages, imposing country manor houses and delightful nature reserves. But best of all there's plenty of places for your dog to run free when walking the Ridgeway.
