Have you ever witnessed the sun setting from Bellmount, near Belton House? Why not join one of our Walk Leaders on a leisurely evening walk, and enjoy stunning views while learning about the local wildlife and history.

During the walk we may go up to Londonthorpe Village and see some spectacular vistas. Or we may walk around Londonthorpe Woods, before heading up into Bellmount Plantation and round to Bellmount Tower to witness the sunset. Hopefully we will be able to enter the Tower, but due to renovation work the Tower may be closed. The views are just as exciting from the foot of the tower, however.

Distance: 2.5 to 3 miles Duration: 2 - 2.5 hours.
