A circular circuit for horse or pony riders starting out on the village green in Hilton Cambridgeshire. This particular route has some great straight sections both flat and with upward slopes that are good to practice your canter to gallop transitions. More excellent views of the countryside.

Starting out from the village green in Hilton, this route takes you on bridleways and field margins as well as some footways. Caution on the initial leg of the route once you get in to the fields because of rabbit holes, once you're on some of the main "straights" can present fantastic opportunity for canter gallop transitions on a two point seat. The view from the top of the "hill" is awesome. As with the other Hilton circuit their is pleanty of wildlife to be seen including, foxes, little owls, buzzards and deer alsong with many more common spieces.
