Sunday Walk: Coombe Hill and Chequers Estate
Details
This is a classic walk of 6 miles we trialled last year to the famous Coombe Hill with it's popular lookout point. We start from the Russell Arms, Butlers Cross and our route takes us the easy way up to the monument, with stunning views across the landscape. We then follow the Ridgeway bridleway through the woods, down and across to the Chequers Estate, the Prime Minister's country residence. Walking time approx. 2.5 hours.
The price for the walk is £2 to cover costs.
If you wish to you can stay afterwards for a post-walk chat and drink at The Russell Arms.
