Walking in a winter wonderland

Wrap up warm this winter and explore the great outdoors with some of our favourite countryside strolls. Whether you prefer challenging hilly hikes or perfectly flat footpaths, these National Trust trails will put a pep in your step! From woodland to historical, coastal to circular there’s something for everyone.

With the frost shimmering under a pale winter sun, don cosy clothing and sturdy boots to take in majestic rolling hills and spectacular seascapes dotted with inquisitive animals and native plants. Even if the weather isn’t amounting to much, winter walks are the perfect way to invigorate and inspire…and the perfect excuse for a rewarding (headily topped!) hot chocolate. Here are a few of our favourite winter walks...
