Community Festival walk: Belton House to Bellmount Tower Circular Guided Walk
Join one of our Walk Leaders for a circular walk up to Bellmount Tower.
Walk up to Old Wood, before heading down Brigade Road across the once WWI Training Camp, cross over Five Gates Road into Thorpe Fields, which had billeted troops from both WWI and WWII, before heading up into Bellmount Plantation and to the Tower. After visiting the tower, proceed down Eastern Avenue back to the mansion.
Whether you are already knowledgeable about the local environment or looking to find out more, everyone is sure to learn something.
