Overview

The walk starts with a delightful section of the Wendover canal followed by a steady climb to the popular cafe in the woods where we'll stop for a picnic. Our gentle descent back to the canal is rewarded with fine views of the Vale of Aylesbury.  We'll visit the tranquil Weston Turville nature reserve before taking a direct route back to the charming tea-shops in Wendover.
