Overview

This circular walk of 6.5 miles will start from The Red Lion pub in Great Sampford. The walk is reasonably flat with only one stile. My American family, who practiced the walk with me, described it as "the best walk to see the  beautiful English countryside at its best. It has amazing views with paths through fields and lovely dabbled shade in the woods. The end of the walk along the Pant river was pretty and it was good to hear the water bubble alongside us. The pub was really friendly and the food was very good" 

Walkers joining the leader for lunch should arrive in enough time to pre-order their lunch before we leave at 10am
