Overview

A classic Chiltern walk through scenic countryside - there will be two alternative meeting points for those travelling by car and those arriving by bus / Chiltern Rail.  We leave High Wycombe heading north through Hughenden Park and the Hughenden Valley, via Hampden Common and the outskirts of Princes Risborough to Whiteleaf.  We will pass Lower Cadsden and Chequers, Happy Valley and Great Kimble before arriving at our destination, Little Kimble Railway Station.  We will take the Chiltern Rail from Little Kimble back to High Wycombe (some trains require a change at Princes Risborough)
