A lovely little 4 miles starting and finishing at the NT’s
Anglesey Abbey which can also be visited if open.
Parking is available in the NT’s car park (free for
members).
- From the car park walk away from the visitor’s centre down the left hand side of the overflow car park. Follow the path until you reach a tennis court and walk diagonally towards the court and follow this path along the back.
- Walk alongside the allotments and turn left at the end. Follow this path until you come out at the end of a road. The back of the mill is on your left and a bridge on your right.
- Go left around the side of the mill and follow the grass track along the edge of the water which should be on your left.
- Keep following the water’s edge for approximately 2 miles.
- When you reach the road turn right. When you reach some cottages on the left continue right and then take the track on the right signposted to Quy Fen, Lode and Horningsea.
- Follow this track for about a mile or so until you reach a woodland on your right and enter the woodland at the break in trees.
- Follow the path through the woodland. Continue straight through until you come out with the water in front of you.
- Turn left and follow the path alongside the water (now on your right) towards the mill.
- Turn right to go back around the mill and follow the footpath back past the allotments, tennis court and to the car park where you started
