Overview

PLACES ON OUR WALKS MUST BE BOOKED IN ADVANCE.

A summer walk in the beautiful countryside on the Ashridge Estate. We will follow the Chiltern Way and then go through Thunderdell Wood including the famous avenue of beech trees. We will walk at a slow pace and there are no stiles or steps. There is lots of shade should the weather be hot.

Walkers are invited to join us for coffee/tea/cake in the monument cafe at the end of the walk.

We can offer lifts from Redbourn or Hemel Hempstead.
