South Bank Ramblers

Thursday, 9 September 2021 - SAUNDERTON TO HIGH WYCOMBE - 9.5 miles - Leader: Dave H

Moderate to brisk paced. Mostly rolling hills and valleys, but with a couple of particularly steep climbs. The final section skirts around Hughenden Manor for a possible tea stop before descent to High Wycombe. One mile of road walking at the end of the walk.

Lunch: Pub or picnic in Hughenden Valley
