Overview

This refreshing and very pleasant walk will begin by climbing to the summit of Ashley Hill (474ft) with fine views back over Berkshire. We walk past the famous Dew Drop Inn and then steadily walk downhill, emerging onto Star Lane that leads back to the lay-by. After the walk we will have breakfast at the Square Deal Cafe. Bring a drink.
