Overview

This is the first of 3 walks covering the entire Three Shires Way, going through Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire and Cambridgeshire. All the walks are linear walks and will involve car sharing. It is essential that you contact the walk leader in advance if you are joining the walk.

This leg goes from Tathall End (but the walk starts in Hanslope) to Warrington - the initial meeting point is on the A428 near Warrington where there are two lay-bys; half the cars will be left there with the rest driving to the start of the walk in Hanslope.

There will be a lunch stop after around 10.5 miles at The Robin Hood in Clifton Reynes.

At the end of the walk the drivers of the cars left in the lay-bys near Warrington will take the other walkers back to Hanslope.
