Overview

The second of two walks today from the same starting point giving you the flexibility of joining us for either two shorter walks or or combine for a longer day of hiking.

This afternoon's walk is longer though less hilly than the morning one. We walk through the village of Horsenden before joining the Ridgeway through the gently undulating open countryside, farmland and a Golf Course to the south as we head gently up Lodge Hill. We'll walk along the Ickneild way through woodland and pass through the village of Bledlow.

We'll pass the Lions of Bledlow before exploring a hidden tranquil Japanese garden (sorry assistance dogs only in the garden). We complete the final couple of miles through farmland with views of Whiteleaf Hill we ascended in the morning.  Back into Princes Risborough, we'll visit a local pub after the walk.
