Overview

Are you ready to explore the breathtaking beauty of the Chilterns? Join us as we walk the Chiltern Way in stages, discovering picturesque landscapes, charming villages, and hidden gems along the way. This long-distance trail, covering approximately 177 miles, offers a perfect mix of rolling hills, wooded paths, and open fields. From historical landmarks to cosy pubs, each stage of the Chiltern Way promises new discoveries and delightful experiences.

There is the option for drinks at a pub in Wendover after the walk.
If you plan on meeting us at Stokenchurch, please let Liam know in advance but we ask you not to do this unless essential so we can ensure we have enough cars at either end.

Please bring lunch, plenty of water, suitable clothing and footwear.
Dogs are welcome but we request owners always keep their dog(s) on a lead.
