This gentle walk to begin with follows an Asher's Trail created in conjunction with The Wildlife Trust. It follows a cycle/walk route through some of the grounds of The Grove Hotel. This will bring us to the Grand Union canal which we shall follow. This takes us up and over a packhorse bridge. We also get a view being opposite of The Dower House, where Fanny Craddock a celebrity cook lived. We can glimpse at the magnificent riverside gardens and then carry on with our walk to the edge of Cassiobury Park. At this point, we will then turn to walk up Lime Avenue the last distinctive feature of the demesne successive Earls of Essex regarded with pride and affection. We then follow a bridleway adjacent to the woods and golf course which takes us to our finish.
Lunch for those who wish to stay will be at The Cock Inn, Church Lane, Sarratt WD3 6HH. This is 4 and a half miles away and is a ten minute drive away so you may wish to consult your map beforehand for directions.
