Octagon Way

Octagon Way is a 24.4 km Local Hiking hiking trail covering an interesting stretch of countryside.

Covering 24.4 km, this demanding trail is best tackled by experienced walkers in good condition. Budget roughly 5 hours and 26 minutes or consider splitting it across two days.

With start and finish just a short distance apart, this near-loop trail offers most of the convenience of a circular route with a subtly different final stretch. Follow the OW waymarkers throughout to stay on the official trail line.

As a Local Walking Network (LWN) route, this trail has a strong community character. It serves both regular local walkers and visitors discovering the area for the first time.
