Overview

  

    

This is part of my "Lacey Green Loops" series of walks around our group's "adopted" parish of Lacey Green.

This is a short walk of is 5 miles, undulating with 580 ft (175m) of ascent/descent. We'll be exploring the countryside around the Chiltern village of Speen. A walk of 4 miles, stopping for an early packed lunch (if needed) along the way will bring us to the Horse Trust for retired and rescued horses and ponies, where we can look round and visit the tea rooms for early afternoon tea. (£1 entry per person for those arriving on foot, https://horsetrust.org.uk/)

It's then a short walk of 1 mile back to the parked cars.
