We will take a leisurely start from Burnham Beeches Eco Café. Join us for a breakfast start (if you wish) at the Eco Café, between 10 and 11 am. The cafe serves a variety of light bites including bacon rolls, sandwiches, and pastries.
After refreshment we will make a start into Burnham Beeches Nature Reserve, taking in the forest scenery and crossing an old Neolithic settlement before heading out into Dorney Wood towards Littleworth Common.
We then cross Egypt Woods and head towards Hedgerley. After passing Hedgerley, there is an option for stopping for lunch at Hanging Wood.
We will then make our way towards Stoke Common, a stunning area of special scientific interest, where we will cross heathland towards Brockhurst Wood and landing in Farnham Common before the final ascent towards our start point at Beeches Way. Depending on the time and interest, there is an option of stopping at a kitty-themed cafe in Farnham Common.
