Community Festival walk: Belton to Bellmount Tower guided walk
Immerse yourself in the history of Bellmount and Belton Estate, on a guided walk that will take you through the East Avenue, and up to Bellmount Plantation.
Enjoy the 2.3k walk, with a 67m ascent, to Bellmount Tower. Take in the rich history of Belton Estate and stroll along the original old road where carriages once travelled. Walk across the deer sanctuary with one of our rangers; this hallowed ground was once the site of a WWI training camp and your guide will reveal the history associated with the 170,000 men that had trained here. Finally, capture the stunning vista from the tower.
This walk is part of Belton's Community Festival which offers free access to the whole estate across the weekend of 5 and 6 September 2026.
