Вокруг Дворца Бленхейм на очень большой территории, по холмам, вокруг озёр, через леса идёт дорожка - широкая и хорошо асфальтированная. Машины по ней проезжают нечасто. Так что главными трудностями будут расстояние и несколько довольно крутых подъёмов. Но удовольствие от такой прогулки явно больше этих сложностей. Если же не хочется ходить много и долго, то можно ограничится внутренними садами.
