Description
Early on in the walk we hope to see some early orchids before rising very steeply along a quiet route up to Chinnor Hill. After pausing to enjoy the view we take the Ridgeway and Chiltern Way to Lodge Hill. Princes Risborough Golf Course and a couple of level crossings with some steps. Saunderton Church, Frogmore Farm and Bledlow. Lower Wainhill and over Keens Crossing to the Village Centre cafe in Chinnor for our refreshment before the half-mile return to the carpark.
