The first of two walks today from the same starting point, giving you the flexibility of joining us for either two shorter walks or combining both for a longer day of hiking. This morning’s walk is the longer but less hilly of the two, taking us through the village of Horsenden before we join the Ridgeway and head across gently undulating open countryside, farmland and a golf course on our way towards Lodge Hill.
From there we continue along the Icknield Way through woodland and into Bledlow. We pass the Lions of Bledlow pub and pause for lunch on the green in front of it. The final couple of miles return through farmland, with views of Whiteleaf Hill for those staying on for the afternoon walk. We finish back in Princes Risborough, where you can leave us here or continue on for the second walk.
