Overview

A lovely afternoon walk of around 6.5 miles taking in the rolling countryside around Burnham Green and Tewin.

We begin by walking from Digswell towards Burnham Green through Little Hillfoot Wood. With lovely countryside views we then head towards Tewin and Marden Hill where we will be able to glimpse the impressive Marden Hill House.

Afterwards we will drop down to the Mimram Valley, walking past Tewin Bury Farm (where we may see some alpacas), before heading back along the Centenary Walk to our start point and some welcome refreshments at the Village Hall.

Dogs are welcome on a lead.

There are several group walks of various distances to choose from, led by experienced walk leaders from the different Ramblers Groups across the Area.

After the walks, there is the chance to meet other walkers for refreshments and conversation at Digswell Village Hall (opposite Welwyn North station) from 4pm.

It’s a great opportunity to walk and chat with members from different Ramblers Groups and with new people.
