Overview

We will meet outside Hillingdon Station at 10.30 and then set off towards the Celandine Way and Swakeleys Park.    The Celandine  Way is an attractive path that follows the River Pinn towards Ruislip.   When we reach the HS2 works we’ll head north towards New Year’s Green Lane and Bayhurst Woods.  After walking through Mad Bess and Copse Woods we’ll reach Ruislip Lido.  The final stretch of the walk takes us into Park Wood and to the summit of Haste Hill from where it is downhill to Northwood Hills station.

Many of the paths through the woods are now muddy.  Therefore, please wear good walking boots or shoes and for those that find them helpful don’t forget your walking poles.
