Overview

Join the friendly Saturday group on a walk to enjoy the landscape and the company. Explore the rolling Chilterns and savour the glimpse of a famous Elizabethan mansion. The landscape is a mixture of field and woodland paths and tracks, and a stretch of the Ridgeway. It is a dog friendly walk, but need to keep the dogs on a lead, no stiles, several gates. 

We walk skirting around Beacon Hill, cross Chequers before returning to the car park. There is some road walking and we cross roads twice.
