Overview

A nine mile walk with three hills, fabulous views and maybe a few friendly cows.  This walk takes us from Huntley church up a steady climb to the top of May Hill for coffee with remarkable views (a must for those who haven't been to the top).  We then descend through woods and fields to the village of Aston Ingham and on up (and down) to our lunch stop in Cliffords Mesne.  From here the walk is relatively flat with one short hill at Glasshouse and the final descent back to the cars.
