Overview

From Cholesbury Common we walk towards Hawridge Common, before turning north towards Wigginton. Before reaching Wigginton, we turn to follow Grim's Ditch for a while, before returning to Cholesbury via High Scrubs. A mix of generally good field and woodland paths. No steep ascents or descents, but one long gentle one. No stiles. Bring refreshments for one stop on Grim's Ditch! Assistance dogs only please.
