Overview

A pleasant walk that takes us along towpath, a disused railway line, and across three rivers, as well as the usual sprinkling of woods and fields. The odd undulation and a few gentle steps but not too taxing in terms of surface, ascent or stiles. Our first refreshment break is on the canal and we make a short detour for lunch on Croxley Green, where there are benches plus an optional visit to The Artichoke pub.
