Scenic Walks in the Chilterns

This is a picturesque evening walk of just under 4 miles, across the delightful woodland tracks of Chorleywood Common and onwards, with views across the hills, down into the Chess Valley to enjoy stretches along the (hopefully shimmering) River Chess, before returning via Chorleywood House Estate, back to The Black Horse, which was once used as a filming location for Jonathan Creek. Walking time about 75 to 90 minutes.

The price for the walk is £2 to cover costs, or free if this is your first walk with me.

After the walk there's the option of staying for a chat and a drink at The Black Horse.

Free Parking
There's parking on the lane alongside the pub.

As the bluebells seem to be out early (and may be gone earlier) and next Thursday is forecast as a sunny evening this is a chance to
enjoy two delightful bluebell woods. This is a 3.5 mile walk. We'll meet on the village green at Sarratt opposite The Boot public house and take a beautiful footpath across the fields out the back with great views over the rolling hills down to the first wood, and then return for the second bluebell wood. Walking time about 1.25 hours.

The price for the walk is £2 to cover costs, or free if this is your first walk with me.

After the walk there's the option of staying for a chat, drink and/or food at The Boot pub in the village.

Free Parking
There's plenty of free parking in the area.
