Overview

We start off toward The Lee, one of the nicest villages in the area. We will stop here for a short break. The remainder of the walk is mostly through quite remote wooded areas: Bray's Wood, Lownde's Wood, Hightree Wood, Bellows Wood etc. The walk is surprisingly level, except for one steep section near the end in Bellows Wood.
