Overview

A  leisurely walk from Whitchurch to Caversham following a mix of quiet roads and footpaths, with views of the Thames and the Chiltern Hills. A lunch break will be taken at Mapledurham (so bring a snack) ,where there are plenty of benches, and a chance to see inside the very unusual church before continuing towards Caversham and Reading town centre.
