Aspley heath and the Greensand Ridge 12.5 Mile Walk


Details
A lovely, mainly woodland walk, though the heathland, woodland and countryside between Milton Keynes and Leighton Buzzard. We will be walking through the ancient woodland, rare heathland and areas of SSSI around Aspley Woods the Greensand Ridge, Kings wood and Rammamere heath.
What to Expect
A 12.5 mile circular walk mainly on good tracks and small lanes. At this time of year some tracks will be muddy in places. There will be a few hills to tackle with a total ascent of around 1300ft. We will maintain a pace of just over 3mph throughout the walk.
This walk is quite challenging due the amount of ascent and distance and a few steep climbs. It is suitable for anyone with a good standard of walking fitness.
If you are a first timer please read the 'About us...' section on the homepage before signing up for this walk, ensuring appropriate fitness and suitability.
If you can't make the walk please change your RSVP in plenty of time to allow others to attend.
