Campaigns
This year our walks will explore more of Hertfordshire’s beautiful countryside and diverse landscapes.
The first for 2019 is a circular walk of 4¾ miles, starting in Wallington, which is located about three miles due east of Baldock in north Hertfordshire, and also visiting Clothall.

Our December walk of just under 4½ miles starts and finishes in Bencroft Wood West car park and runs through well-wooded countryside in Broxbourne Borough to the west of the A10 and south of Hertford.
The route is relatively flat with a few short ascents and descents.

This 3.4 mile circular walk takes in some of the rolling open countryside and woodland in the middle of the county. The walk is centred on rural Symondshyde for which the submitted Welwyn Hatfield District Local Plan proposes a new settlement of 1130 homes. The local campaign group Save Symondshyde and CPRE Herts continue to campaign against this damaging proposal, which would remove a swathe of rural countryside from the Green Belt. The walk starts and finishes in Coleman Green, southeast of Wheathampstead.
