Walks at Petworth

With 700 acres to explore, there are endless opportunities for walking at Petworth this winter and we’ve compiled a list of downloadable walks to get you started. Plan a short stroll with the family or a longer day out taking in the views that inspired Turner and Capability Brown. Try the free Petworth Park Explorer on your smart phone or tablet to discover even more details.

As the days get colder enjoy the native oaks and limes standing proudly in the park, discover the different monuments dotted around the Pleasure Grounds and take in the views of Petworth that inspired JMW Turner.

To get the most out of your walk we highly recommend trying the free interactive Park Explorer that reveals exclusive details on the impact Capability Brown’s project had on the landscape as well as the power his work had to inspire contemporary artists like Turner to capture his masterpiece.

Once you’ve opened up the Park Explorer take a look at our downloadable walks to suit any ability that bring the history of Petworth to life including a walk that takes in the views that inspired Turner and a walk that passes our ancient and veteran trees of the park.
