Finchley & Hornsey is a friendly group, open to everyone. We walk mainly in Herts and surrounding counties.

A 5 mile leisurely walk from the railway station at Bricket Wood. It takes in woodland, open farmland and riverside locations. The station is recently refurbished and run by the lady who makes all the cakes! It has an original loo too for those wishing to use it and to have refreshments afterwards. The walk takes in woodland, open farmland and riverside locations and there are no hills to speak of. The area was the site of experimental trials of the bouncing bomb (as in the Dambusters} in a local stream but I'm afraid I don't know which stream!
The station car park only takes around 8 cars so recommend parking a five minute walk across the track bridge on Black Boy Wood. Trains to Bricket Wood Station run hourly between Watford Junction and St Albans Abbey Stations - check National Rail for times.
Parking is a five minute walk across the rail track bridge on Black Boy Wood Road and adjacent roads.
