Overview

A lovely 9.6 mile, relaxing flat walk through crop fields crossing a few streams. Passes underneath the Halfpenny airport flight path where good views can be had of  the pirvate small planes passing nearby overhead. We enters the Forest Covert of Highgate common before returning to the village. Bring packed lunch.
