I strongly suspect this recurring event no longer takes place, but I have never received any information about it since I first heard years ago and have never had any enquiry. ======= Blow the cobwebs away and get active at lunch time with a bike ride around Central Park to perk you up for your afternoon's work. Aimed at workers in the area, but all welcome. It may be possible to borrow a bike, by prior arrangement. Contact Nick [dot] Davies [at] lbbd [dot] gov [dot] uk.

This walk takes us into the heart of the **Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty**, beginning at **Tring Station**. We’ll start gently along the **Grand Union Canal**, passing through Dixon’s Gap and the old **Wilstone Step Locks**, before looping around **Marston Vale Nature Reserve** – a peaceful spot loved by birdwatchers. From there we’ll follow the brook into Tring and pick up the ancient **Icknield Way**, often called Britain’s oldest road. The trail soon opens up into **Tring Park**, once landscaped by Lord Rothschild. It’s a quirky place with sweeping lawns, hidden follies and woodland paths. Back in the 1880s, Rothschild even filled the park with exotic animals – imagine giraffes and kangaroos roaming the English countryside! We finish by joining the **Ridgeway National Trail**, winding back towards Tring for our train home. This is a sociable countryside walk with a mix of canals, nature, and history – just the right balance for a relaxed day out. *** ## 🕘 Schedule & Meeting Info * **Meeting Time:** 09:25 at London Euston Station (outside the main ticket office) * **Train Departure:** 09:54 to Tring (arrives 10:32, 38 mins) * **Hike Start:** 10:40 at Tring Station * **Lunch:** Packed lunch, snacks, and water * **Finish:** Approx. 16:30 at Tring Station * **Return to London:** Trains every 30–40 mins 🎫 Train fare not included – Return to Tring *** ## 📍 Hike Overview * **Grade:** Beginner/Intermediate 🥾🥾 * **Distance:** 16 km * **Hiking Time:** 4.5 hrs (plus breaks) * **Ascent:** 195 m * **Terrain:** Canal paths, fields, parkland, woodland trails * **Pace:** Steady social walk * **Hike Leader:** Gary – 07968585224 *** ## 🎒 What to Bring ✅ Hiking boots or sturdy shoes ✅ Waterproof jacket & suitable layers ✅ Packed lunch, water & snacks ✅ Travelcard or contactless for train *** 💬 **What to Expect** Our hikes are social, inclusive, and fun.
