Ewelme Circular
Difficulty Rating:
The Ewelme Circular takes you on a 4.2mi loop through the Chilterns countryside, where you’ll traverse gentle undulations stretching across footpath and bridleways. If you’re attempting this walk during wetter months, be sure to bring waterproof boots along! While this walk is pet and kid-friendly, you will pass some electric fences, making it essential to keep your kids and canine companions away from them.
Getting there
To get to the start of the Ewelme Circular, head to Ewelme and follow Eyre’s Lane before turning right onto B4009/Grove Lane. Continue for 0.7mi and then take a right onto Firebrass Hill, which eventually becomes Cat Lane. At the intersection, turn left onto Parson’s Lane before taking a sharp right onto High Street, and then quickly after, take a sharp left—your destination will be on your right (Cow Common Car Park)

Ewelme Circular Description
The Ewelme Circular walk is an excellent loop for families seeking a countryside adventure! Setting out from the car park, take a sharp right by crossing the street and following Parson’s Road to the church. After about 656ft, you’ll take another quick right to merge with the Chiltern Way, a signed footpath. The start of your loop will take you through a pig field! Continue to follow signs for Chiltern Way before reaching a signed bridleway on your right. Do note that the sign is slightly hidden, so keep an eye for it around the 1.2mi mark. After turning right, keep straight, passing through one crossroad. At the next crossroad, take a right to follow the blue-marked bridleway until you reach a T-junction (notice the barns in front of you) and head right. When you reach the end of the track, take the signposted footpath that takes you between two hedgerows. Continue straight, and turn right at the end of the field to head in the direction of the elementary school and your car! Follow the path until you reach the read and take a right on Burrows Hill to go back to the car park.
After you walk, spend some time exploring the lovely village of Ewelme!
