The Welwyn Garden City circular walk has to be postponed as there are no rail services to WGC on 01/02/2025. The following walk will be covered which I have led previously.
A walk following the River Lee Navigation and a loop to Wareside where we will have lunch then returning to the Lee Navigation at St. Margarets. Pub lunch at the Chequers Inn at Wareside. There is a picnic spot nearby for those with a packed lunch.
If you would like a pub lunch then contact me by Wednesday evening so I can book a table. For menu refer to link below.
There is a drop out point at Wareside. Bus from Wareside (outside the White Horse PH) to Ware. Journey at 14:26pm, time about 15 minutes.
