We are the Chiltern Young Walkers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Starting from Hemel Old Town, we head up out of the valley across rolling farmland until we pass the grand Palladian mansion of Gaddesden Place and enjoy what they claim to be one of the finest views in the Home Counties and the setting for films Legend of Tarzan (2016) and The Current War (2018). We then head into the valley to have lunch beside the River Gade. Following the Chiltern Way through woodland and heading up to Boxted Farm, home to the Mad Squirrel Brewery where we'll pause for a drink.
After following the woodland around the outskirts of Hemel and the site of a Roman villa spa and resort. We cross river Gade once again finally passing through Gadebridge Park back to rhe car park and the option of a drink in one of the historic Old Town pubs.
