West Knoyle Walk & Route Map

This varied route from West Knoyle packs a lot into a relatively compact outing, with frequent climbs and descents giving it a satisfyingly energetic feel.

Early on, the walk rises over Cleeve Hill, where open slopes and changing views set the tone.

At the half way point, a pause at the gorgeous pub on Windmill Hill is a real highlight, with far-reaching views across the countryside.

Later, the route slips into the calmer, wooded atmosphere of Mackintosh Davidson Wood Nature Reserve, adding shade and contrast.

It’s a beautiful, leg-testing walk that blends woodland, hills and scenery into a rewarding few hours out.
