Walk: Burton Agnes Circular

This circular walk from Burton Agnes in East Yorkshire through Kilham and Harpham is perfect for well-behaved dogs, offering off-lead opportunities through fields and quiet paths. There's a great spot for a paddle halfway through. The terrain is mostly flat with scenic views of the Yorkshire Wolds. Expect muddy field paths and tracks after rain, and varying conditions in arable fields. Waymarking is intermittent, so downloading offline maps is recommended for guidance. You'll encounter several gates and five stiles, with some requiring help for dogs. Be cautious of electric fences. Plan for 3-5 hours to complete the walk.
