Overview

The walk starts with a wander round Heartwood forest towards Nomansland, taking in some of the wild flower meadows and Round wood to West End Farm. Then we follow bridle paths and tracks over fields to join the Hertfordshire Way near Cheapside Farm, where the walk then follows that of the short walk into St Albans and The Verulamium.
