Welly Wandering

Pull on your boots, grab a coat and get exploring on one of our way-marked welly walks.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

It might be cold outside, but here at Killerton there's plenty to get you out and enjoying the outdoors.

Each week, follow a different route around the tranquil Killerton parkland. Don’t forget to collect your stamp card from Visitor Reception at the beginning of your adventure - once you've visited with your wellies 3 times before 5 February and have collected your stamps, you can treat yourself to a free drink. Is there a better way to warm up after a brisk winter's walk?

All routes are dog friendly and are between 1.5km and 4km (longer walks will have shortcuts for tired legs). Walks are included in admission price. Free drink voucher valid until 31 March 2025.
