Embark on the Fire Wood and Parsonage Wood loop from Turville, a moderate hike that guides you through classic English countryside. You will traverse rolling hills and open meadows, enjoying cool, shaded paths through extensive woodlands. Keep an eye out for the iconic Cobstone Windmill, a famous landmark that adds charm to your journey as you complete this 8.6 miles (13.9 km) route, gaining 987 feet (301 metres) in elevation over approximately 3 hours and 56 minutes.
To plan your visit, begin your adventure from the picturesque Turville Village.
