The Ver Valley and Bricket Wood

The River Ver is one of Hertfordshire’s chalk streams and is fed by springs flowing out from the underlying chalk.

This walk is a linear route linking stations on the Abbey railway line between Watford and St Albans, following the River Ver Trail. Much of the route runs close to the River Ver chalk stream, passing numerous historic features including water mills.

The entire route to Bricket Wood railway station from St Albans is just under 7 miles. There is an option for a shorter walk of about 3 miles finishing at either Park Street railway station or How Wood railway station.
