Overview

New walk length and start point

Dare to join CYW for a spooktacular walk. To celebrate the spooky season we will be holding a Halloween costume walk ending at a Pumpkin Patch 🎃

Whether you are the Walking Dead or a Chiltern fun walker come in your best fancy dress and you may well win the best costume trick or treat!!!

For the walk itself, we will walk along the Chess Valley past waterfalls and through woodland all while enjoying some amazing views of the Chess Valley.

Once in the village of Little Chalfont we will catch the Tube back one stop to Chesham.

Once in Chesham, we will head to a Pumpkin Patch where we can purchase a pumpkin ready for carving at home in time for Halloween 🎃.

If you are looking for costume inspiration, we will be passing through many famous film locations, including Indiana Jones, Task Master, Four Weddings and a Funeral, and, of course, lots of Midsomer Murders.

Hope to see you all there for those wanting to join but with no costume I will be at the start point 30 minutes before the start time with some face paints so feel free to still join in the fun.

Please note this walk requires taking a train back to our start point.

Dogs are welcome and encouraged to join in with the fancy dresss. We do however ask they are kept under control and on lead at all times for the comfort of everyone in the group.
