Walk Description:

Starting beside the Victoria Pub, this route quickly immerses you in woodland. 

As you gain height, the trees open to occasional glimpses of the surrounding countryside. Partway through, the path links up with the Compton Walk.

After the initial climb, the terrain becomes gentler, allowing you to enjoy the peace of the woods and the varied birdlife. Expect a total walking time of around 1 hour 15 minutes, depending on pace and breaks.

Tip: Wear sturdy footwear, especially after rain, as the roots and inclines can be slippery.

 

 

Walking Levels Explained

Easy – Up to 2.5 to 3 mph 

Ideal for casual walkers who enjoy conversation along the way. These walks are mostly flat, and any hills will be tackled slowly and gently.

Moderate – 3 to 3.5 mph

A steady pace that may lead to slightly heavier breathing, particularly on inclines. Suitable for those looking for a bit more of a workout.

Challenging – 3.5 to 4 mph

Suited for experienced walkers who enjoy pushing their pace. These walks may include longer durations (2+ hours), steeper inclines/declines, or uneven terrain. Though challenging, there will be moments to catch your breath, usually on flat or downhill sections.

Note: We never leave anyone behind. The walk leader makes sure everyone is looked after.
