Walks Long
The group meets for one walk a month always on the first Tuesday of the month starting at 10.00 am. Our walks are always led by a member of the group and we encourage as many of our members as possible to lead a walk. At present we have 27 members in the group and on average we have around 12 walkers each month. There is no limit on how many walkers can join the walk and new members are always welcome. The walks are between 6 and 9 miles long, with the longer walks tending to be in the summer and sometimes include an extra picnic stop.
The length and description of each walk are detailed in advance so you can choose which walks you would like to join.
Communication with the group is mainly through WhatsApp which allows quick simple messaging and allows for last minutes changes to be efficiently communicated i.e. if a member can’t make the walk or small change in meeting or parking details.
It is a friendly, fun group with the opportunity to see some spectacular scenery and maybe even visit places that you didn’t know existed whilst keeping fit and active.
The next walk is on Tuesday, 7th May at 10.00 am and is being led by Carole Rudston. It is 6.2 mile starting from The Rainbow pub in Middle Assendon going to Bix Bottom and Stonor. A typical Chilterns walk with some undulating terrain and rewarding views.
Updates
The walk from Berrick Prior had to be cancelled at the last minute following heavy rain resulting in footpaths looking like lakes and therefore impassable. A local substitute walk was offered from Chinnor to Wainhill, along the Ridgeway towards Princes Risborough back through Bledlow and on to Chinnor. The walk was greatly enjoyed by 11 walkers.
