Overview

There is a limit of 20 people for this walk and booking is essential.  Please use the email link after 18 September to book your place.

Catch the 09.02 from Marylebone and change at High Wycombe for the Princes Risborough train.  Buy a day return to Aylesbury, ensuring that the ticket enables you to travel to Princes Risborough and return from Great Missenden. 

There are hills throughout the day.  In the morning we have a long, easy climb through fields and woods before descending for lunch at The Gate Pub in Bryant's Bottom.  Picnic tables are nearby.  If you want a pub lunch, please email Annette by close on Tuesday 14 October, at the very latest. 

We continue with a short, steep climb immediately after lunch and another similar climb soon after.  we finish by walking through Great Missenden, where there is a possibility of refreshments before catching the traain back to Marylebone.  Return trains are hourly, on the hour.
