Overview

A leisurely walk in the Berkshire countryside climbing gently from the car park to St. James Church and then downhill to the river finishing with a stretch alongside the water, before the stroll beside Colebrook South Lake back up to the car park. Lovely views from the high point and lots of desirable residences to admire enroute.
