Join us for a beautiful walk that straddles the border between Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire. We start at Tring Reservoirs - made up of Tringford Reservoir, Startop’s End Reservoir, Marsworth Reservoir, and the slightly further away Wilstone Reservoir.
We’ll head off along the Aylesbury arm of the Grand Union Canal before passing through the quaint village of Aston Clinton.
We’ll skirt the edge of RAF Halton’s airfield before returning to Tring Reservoirs along the Wendover arm of the Grand Union Canal.
All are welcome on this walk, but it’s essential to have a good pair of walking boots as parts of the route can get very muddy.
Please bring a packed lunch.
Latest reports suggest parking is £4 for 24 hours. Please allow a little extra if paying via an app on your phone. This car park can get full during popular periods; that’s why there’s an early start time.
