Country Walks
Unspoilt, rolling hills – that’s what you will discover at Burton Dassett Hills. Whether you are walking, flying a kite or just sitting in your car, the magnificent views from these hills are breathtaking. The site comprises a series of rugged hilltops affording spectacular views in all directions and Fox Covert, a small woodland with a surfaced footpath. Opened as a country park in 1971, the 100 acres contain a wealth of historical interest such as the prominent beacon, quarry remains and the nearby 12th Century All Saints Church.

This 100 acre site, managed in partnership with Warwickshire Wildlife Trust, is a wildlife haven with all-weather footpaths providing access to varied habitats in every season. The site is noted for its abundance of butterflies, dragonflies, wild flowers and birds.
Many unusual plants thrive at this Nature Reserve, which was formed after limestone excavations ceased. It is also home to 15 types of dragonfly and 28 different butterflies. A mostly flat, circular, way-marked surfaced footpath of approximately 1.25 miles will lead walkers around the site.
