Finish off the weekend well with an afternoon autumnal stroll in Burnham Beeches woods. We'll be meeting at Burnham Beeches éco café (loos also available there) at the end of the car park.

We'll meander our way through the picturesque woods towards Littleworth Common, where we'll pick up Shakespeare's Way as we go through Dorney Wood. Later we'll gradually ascend through Egypt Woods and then admire the autumnal vistas as we descend back towards our start point.

This is tagged as an Intro Walk, meaning its a nice easy walk where its more about getting to know the group and asking any questions you might have about how we work than any complicated or strenuous walking. Any of our regular walkers are welcome of course, too and please bring any guests you like.
