Overview

This walk will start and finish in Old Knebworth. Along the way we shall pause to consider the site of the 500 acre rabbit warren that formed part of Knebworth Park before walking a section of the old Park boundary. Entering into the Knebworth Estate it is probable that we shall see the herd of deer that frequent this delightful area. We then walk through Graffidge Wood and head towards Norton Green before heading back through Newton Wood towards Knebworth: passing by the magnificent Knebworth House and St Mary and St Thomas, a jewel of a church.

Close to Knebworth House are the Barns, which sell a range of refreshments and food.
