Overview

A scenic circular walk from the picturesque village of Old Warden, taking in rolling countryside, woodland paths, and quiet lanes. The route passes near the historic Shuttleworth Estate, offering charming views and a taste of Bedfordshire's rural heritage. Gentle terrain makes this a rewarding and accessible route for most walkers.

After the walk, join us indoors for a festive gathering — bring a plate of seasonal food to share and enjoy a glass of mulled wine. £2 at the door covers refreshments. A warm and social way to round off a winter walk!
