Overview

This is a linear walk from Amersham tube station down the hill with attractive views over Old Amersham to a brief stop at the toilets in the Old Town car park. Then along the shoulder of the Misbourne valley and on to Chalfont St Giles for an early lunch where there are seats on the green and a cafe to get hot drinks, pasties and cakes. After lunch we follow the Chiltern Way and go through Carpenter’s Wood to Chorleywood station.
