Overview

Leaving the village of Greywell, we'll be walking alongside the River Whitewater following the boardwalk across marshy reedbeds. Later there will be views across open farmland as we follow ancient byways. Expect to see red kites, and other raptors if we're lucky. There are a few stiles, and some very moderate inclines, before and after we pass through Mapledurwell and Up Nately.
