Running up through the Iron Age fort and then around its eastern border, this trail follows tracks and roads through attractive mixed woodland. A slightly rougher section runs downhill but returns to the car park on forest roads. A nearby viewpoint can be reached by following a short section of the Mailscot Wood Trail, which has a rougher surface and steps.
