From Pitstone Hill we will climb up Clipper Down, the high point of the walk, and then descend to the beautiful village of Aldbury where we shall have a short break. We will then make a steady climb to the Aldbury Nowers and return via the Ridgeway to Pitstone Hill. Good paths, lovely views and no stiles. Bring refreshments for one stop.
