Overview

The terrain on this section of the Loop can get quite hilly, so we’ll adjust our pace accordingly on this 4-mile stretch. We’ll start in Jubilee Country Park, named to celebrate the late Queen’s Silver Jubilee, before entering Crofton Woods, a site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). The woods can be very muddy after rain. Lunch will be on the hoof, so be sure to bring snacks and water. Toilets at Petts Wood, and again at the end of the walk, which should finish by around 15.00
!!! No booking required, just turn up
