Walks.
This is where I write about my walks. Sometimes it’s just a route I’ve taken, sometimes it’s more of a ramble — reflections, thoughts, or anything that pops into my head.
Most of the walks are with my dog, Elvis. They range from short village loops to woodland paths and other local spots in the Chiltern Hills and beyond. I usually include a few photos, a bit of writing about the day, and, if it’s useful, a link to the full route on OS Maps so you can follow it exactly as I did.
I like to try and get a new walks blog out on the 17th of the month, and for anyone interested in photography, I post photography-related blogs on the 3rd over on the blogs page. Feel free to sign up for the newsletter if you want to keep track.
Coombe Hill and The Ridgeway
Coombe Hill is the highest viewpoint in the Chilterns, and on a clear day the Vale of Aylesbury stretches out below it in a way that stops you mid-stride. This circular route from the Whiteleaf Cross car park takes in Beacon Hill, the Ridgeway National Trail, Whiteleaf Hill and the Icknield Way before climbing to the monument at the summit. Rolling hills, ancient paths and some of the most open walking in Buckinghamshire.
