Overview

We shall meet at the National Trust car park at Christmas Common at 9.30am. (Please note the earlier time).  We shall follow paths that will be familiar to some and engagingly new to others through open countryside and some woodland.  Please bring a picnic lunch.  The aim is to spend some time at the Warburg Nature Reserve where there is seating to enjoy your picnic……weather permitting.  We will return to Christmas Common via Russell’s Water and Greenfield Wood.
