Overview

Walk off your seasonal excesses with a brisk walk largely but not exclusively based on the Chess Valley Walk, an undulating route over familiar paths across farmland and accessible via the Met. line. Very little mud at the time of writing but you should be prepared. The villages of Sarratt and Latimer offer opportunities for our refreshment breaks.
