Walk information
Just over the border into Buckinghamshire you will find this short and sweet stroll around the pretty Brill Common with it's beautiful windmill, open common land and some woodland to walk through. There is a small amount of road walking on the route.
Walk information
This is an extended walk around the village of Brill.
The walk of course visits the beautiful windmill on the common in Brill, but then takes you back and on a walking loop through the village and then on a climb up Rid's hill for a pleasant walk through Chinkwell Woods before descending back to the village.
The climb is relatively strenuous, so go prepared with plenty of energy.

First-hand experiences
Lovely walk, but still really muddy and definitely a wellie walk at the moment (I had trainers on!)
Views splendid! Especially on a sunny day.
