Overview

Pleasant leisurely walk from Barnet Museum, close to  Barnet Church Wood Street  bus stop, down through woods to Darlands Lake and back along the Dollis Valley Way to the cinema.  Mainly level, fairly good paths. We will stop for a picnic snack/banana stop en route. For those with more appetite there is an excellent fish and chip restaurant next to the cinema at the end of the walk!
