This pleasant, short Chiltern walk starts with a steep climb through the woods from Bradenham National Trust Car Park. Unlike a lot of our recent Chiltern walks it doesn’t follow or cross any of the well marked trails such as the Chiltern Way or Ridgeway. The guidance below will help you navigate but don’t use it as a fully accurate turn-by-turn guide. Always take a map and/or a GPX route and prepare well for the weather and terrain.
Keep an eye out for the sculptures on display in the garden of the large house on the north side of Kiln Lane. Although there’s no pubs on the main route, you can take a short diversion at the half-way point into Lacey Green village for a rest at the Black Horse.
