Overview

You’re sure of a big surprise; for every path that ever there was is gathered here for certain because today’s the day the Ramblers have their picnic (AKA banana break)!  This walk is entirely within National Trust land and explores an extensive network of permissive woodland paths - Naphill Common, The Coppice and Park Wood - that are not marked on OS maps, with a few points of interest thrown in.  There is a moderate uphill climb at the beginning for about 10 minutes or so, then it levels off.  There are a few rough bits and some minor undulations, but generally good paths throughout with no stiles.  Suitable only for those who can maintain a moderate walking pace as it is essential that we stay together as a group throughout.
