A rural walk that takes in some stunning rolling countryside. If you thought Hertfordshire was a flat county crossed by a few motorways, this walk will change your mind for ever. Surface is generally good to moderate, although there are rough parts.

The car park can be busy on match days and at school drop off and pick up times, as parents park due to the proximity of St Paul's School. Additional parking is available opposite the car park entrance, outside St Paul's Church, or further up Langleybury Lane on the left, on the access road to St Paul's School (non-school days only).
Local Transport
Arriva bus services stop at St Paul's Church. Search on their website for services that stop at "Hunton Bridge Langleybury Church".
Refreshments
At the start/end of the route across the A41 dual carriageway (via underpass) is The Kings Lodge and The Kings Head. There is also a small convenience store.
Further on the route there are three pubs in the Sarratt area, The Boot, The Cricketers and the Cart & Horses. None of these pubs are on the route but are not far off, use own navigation to locate and return to the route.
