Overview

Finish off June on Friday evening with a moderately paced walk mainly through the shade of plenty of woodland and, weather permitting, watch the sun set from Coombe Hill just before 9.30pm at the end from the highest point in Buckinghamshire.

We will start off along the Bacombe Hill Nature Reserve, enjoying the wild orchids and view toward Aylesbury and beyond, then make our way clockwise through woodland to Dunsmore via the edge of Wendover. More woodland around Little Hampden and back to Coombe Hill along the Ridgeway. Well behaved dogs are welcome.
