Overview

The Marlow Bottom Scarecrow Festival is back for its 6th year. The locals are very imaginative and their creations, displayed in front gardens, are always entertaining. The walk will be on woodland paths, parts of the Chiltern Way, and residential streets in order to see the exhibits. We will also visit the Buddhist stupas in Hollyhill Wood, where we will have a brief snack stop. No stiles, but the route has ascents and descents, some quite steep and slippery after wet weather. Boots are recommended and poles if you like to use them.
