Brailes Windmill Run

A mostly-flattish route with some great highlights: the majestic Brailes church, the hill-top windmill above Tysoe, and the modest but enjoyable mound of Brailes Castle if you still have energy towards the end of the run/walk, with some ridge-and-furrow fields. There are pubs in Upper and Lower Brailes. From the path just below the windmill, it is possible to look down on Compton Wynyates ("Winyets"), supposedly one of the finest houses in England and very private. The loop round to Winderton on the return is quite nice but missable; if only up for one of the detours on the return to the church, make it the second one, to the castle mound. If you want to extend the run, head up the path round the west and south sides of Brailes Hill from Brailes, rather than continuing north to Tysoe from the windmill.

About the Calorie Calculator

Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
