Walk Description:

This is a lovely walk up on Salisbury Plain of just under 5 miles. The terrain is almost entirely well drained turf with a few gravel tracks. This walk will encourage you to walk out and establish a lovely rhythm whilst enjoying the big sky and wide open space. The gradient is not testing, but walkers should be happy to walk this distance at a 'Gear 2' pace. On the day there are a couple of short cut options if necessary.

There is hard standing car parking but no WC facilities. It is exposed so please dress appropriately for the weather on the day.

Gear 1 - A nice, easy and natural pace that you can do for extended periods with recovery periods where appropriate. Short hills might be introduced. 

Gear 2 - A faster pace gained through technique. There will be less recovery time.

A great way to start the week is with an Active Mondays walk in and around Stanmore. Or get ready for the weekend with a stimulating Saturday morning walk around Stanmore Country park. These are intermediate walks, lasting one hour and will include some hill work. For those new to the area you`ll be surprised at the fantastic views over London that you get from Wood Farm Viewpoint, the hidden lakes in PearsWood and Bentley Priory and the seemigly endless trails through woods which change with the seasons.

Walkabout Wednesdays give the opportunity to travel a little further into neighbouring boroughs, or out along the Metropolitan line into the Chess Valley. Saturdays we`re always in the Stanmore Country Park, but we never tire of it as there are such a variety of trails to explore. 

COVID Safety Steps

Facial coverings are recommended to protect yourself when passing others. I may wear a face covering at the start of walks and carry gloves to open gates for you to go through. Throughout the walk we will maintain social distancing as best we can at all times.

NB we will not be hirning poles during the current pandemic to prevent transmission of the virus.
