We’re a Ramblers group aimed mainly at people in their 20s, 30s and slightly older, offering led walks and social events across Herts, Beds and south Cambs.
This walk is for up to 15 people, including the leader.
In this combined walk and social we set off from Biggleswade Station to visit the "Shuttleworth in Lights" event. Please make sure to book your tickets ASAP here at: https://www.shuttleworth.org/product/sil24/ for 8th December at 5:50pm.
We will start the walk by setting off in the afternoon from Biggleswade Station and walk along the Ivel river towards Jordans Mill.
Shortly afterwards, we will pass through the village of Broom on our way to Warden Warren Wood enriched with tall pine trees. We will then find our way down towards the quaint village of Old Warden where we can enjoy the warmth of the Hare and Hounds pub as darkness descends.
Nearer to 6pm and very likely wearing our headtorches we will head to Shuttleworth where we will visit Shuttleworth in Lights, where the Shuttleworth collection and Swiss Garden will be illuminated in a wonderful display of big, bold, colour, showcasing the wonderful natural features of our landscape and heritage.
Afterwards, we will make our way back aided by our headtorches via Broom lakes and back into Biggleswade.
Dogs are welcome on a lead.
For information about walking with the group, including our dog policy, please visit the Stag Walkers website.
