Brent Knoll

About this park

Brent Knoll, a prominent 139-metre hill in Somerset, offers brisk and rewarding walks with stunning panoramic views across the surrounding countryside. Dogs are welcome to join their owners on this moderate circular route, which includes steep sections as you ascend to the summit. While there are no explicit off-lead rules mentioned, owners should ensure their dogs are under close control, especially given the steep terrain and the presence of wildlife. The trail predominantly features natural surfaces, though some parts may include steps, and conditions can vary from dry ground to overgrown sections, particularly in warmer months. The effort is well rewarded with fantastic views from the top, encompassing the picturesque village and beyond. For those seeking a longer adventure, the trail can be extended north towards East Brent. While specific facilities like dedicated dog bins or water stations are not detailed, it is advisable for owners to come prepared with their own waste bags and water, especially as this is a more natural hill walk rather than a formal park. Parking is available nearby, though it is not specified whether it is free or paid. This walk is ideal for energetic dogs and owners looking for a good workout accompanied by spectacular Somerset vistas.
