건너뛰기 주변 최고의 가족 하이킹 & 워킹 코스

Wild horses and cows roaming.

Lovely woodland, nice spot for a stroll.

Off-road parking, could easily fit 10-12 or so cars in here.

Smaller parking area, with space for around half a dozen cars or so.

If you follow the small woodland path around the far northern edge of the Common, just next to South Moor Field, you will be rewarded with a stroll through a fabulous Silver Birch wood, and a huge number of mature Oak trees. This is a little off the beaten track through the centre of the Common, but the paths are easily navigable and not overgrown (even in Summer).

Remnants of RAF Riccall are clearly visible around this loop. The base has a rich history and served as a heavy bomber (Handley Page Halifax) operational conversion unit during the Second World War. Three runways were constructed to form an "A" shape, which allegedly had to be rebuilt after they started to subside and sink into the soft ground. The entire common is riddled with patches of concrete and asphalt that represent the remains of the taxiways and flight pan.

Northwest section of the Common is known as Danes Hills, so named because it is believed that this is where the where the Viking army buried their dead after their defeat at the Battle of Stamford Bridge. If you are lucky, you may see some long-horn cattle roaming around. Not sure which farm they belong to, but there are signs warning dog-walkers that cattle are roaming, so they haven't strayed here by accident.

Off-road parking for at least a dozen cars, easily accessible from the A19 next to Riccall.
