Up and coming walks


I have some news on up and coming local walks for you to come along to now the weather's finally improving. I need a break from DIY in the new house so I'm really looking forward to these walks!

Sunday 26th May - family walk at Deacon Hill, nr Hitchin (3.5 miles)
We've done this walk several times, it's a great little route that can take little over an hour to walk. Emma and the kids are coming along on this one, it's a family walk nearly everyone can do. We're meeting at 10am in the Live and Let Live (http://www.liveandletlive.co) pub car park in Pegsdon (post code SG5 3JX). If the weather's good we might sit in the pub garden after the walk for a quick drinky.

Saturday 15th June - Pitstone Windmill & Ivinghoe Hills (6.25 miles or 8.1 miles)
This walk goes past Pitstone windmill and on to the Ivinghoe hills. There's a couple of climbs so it'll be good practise if you're coming on the summer weekend. It's a 10am start from my house in Pitstone (post code LU7 9AF) and they'll be a couple of potential pub stops. We'll probably do the shorter 6 mile walk but there's an 8 mile route if there's enthusiasm for it!

Friday 5th to Sunday 7th July - Summer Walking Weekend - South west coast path

September - Childwick Green / north St Albans - date to follow
No details yet.


Drop me a line or give me a call if you think you'll come along to a walk. Look forward to hearing from you!
