Beautiful woodland walks with stunning views of Castle Howard and unique architectural features like the pyramid on St. Anne's Hill and the Four Faces monument. The wood also features a variety of flora, including rhododendrons, and the King Oak, which has a fascinating information board.

If you are following the footpaths to the east of the main Castle Howard grounds, you won't be able to get close to this folly (railings prevent access as it is within the Castle Howard grounds), but you will still have great views of it.

Unmissable and unfortunately not well served by public footpaths or bridleways, however, the main road has sufficiently wide verges to walk safely along. If you are heading north past the Obelisk Ponds, then there is a fantastic track on the east side of the road which is flanked by lime trees forming a wonderful avenue to walk along (see photos).

Grassy track over the New River, nice views of the estate and various follies from the bridge. Per historicengland.org: "c1740. By Daniel Garrett for Henry, 4th Earl of Carlisle. Sandstone ashlar. Banded rustication to cutwaters dividing 3 stepped segmental arches each with rusticated voussoirs and a mask keystone to central arch. Niches in tooled architraves with pulvinated friezes and consoles supporting pediments flank the main arch. Brackets support cornice surmounted by low parapet with central balustrade and coping. Ramped approaches have balustrading, rusticated piers to centre, and square-section end piers."

A nice 4.6 mile stroll with a gentle incline

The gentle drop from Huskit Hill towards Terrington offers lovely views from above. It is a narrow path at first, then becomes more of a grassy track. There is a very narrow and picturesque footbridge over Wath Beck in one place. Probably one place where you want to slow down your run - or you might get wedged in!

The Temple of the Four Winds was designed by Vanbrugh, although he didn't get to finish it before he died (1726). It was first used as a place to get refreshments and to read. There are gorgeous views of the hills from here as well!

It's a magnificent experience walking in Pretty Wood, which is very appropriately named - it's very pretty here! On your way, you will pass the ancient tree, King's Oak, which is thought to be over 400 years old. Further into the forest, you will come upon the Four Faces monument from the 18th century. And outside of these, it's a beautiful forest to be in.
