Overground and Out of Town - Lioness Line (14 miles/Moderate)

Metropolitan Walkers is part of the Ramblers, Britain's walking charity. All welcome for 3 'taster' walks, after which please join the Ramblers - info on the Met Walkers website

Well, the series couldn't really resume with anything else but the Lioness Line...This walk takes in part of the Ebury Trail and then climbs gently along the full length of the Chess Valley, from suburbia to chalk stream. It finishes at the Underground in Chesham, named for the river's source. Note this is the same route as January 2024 under a different name, though returners are very much welcome!

Please bring packed lunch, pub stop at end of walk.
