Meet at 10.30am to start at 10.45am.
Where: Crowell, near Chinnor. We'll meet in the car park of The Shepherd's Crook, Crowell near Chinnor, OX39 4RR. There is very little parking at the pub so please use the village car park in front of the church. If you're coming from M40 junction 6, Aston Rowant direction the entrance to the car park is on the right immediately after the bus stop.
Route: up to and along The Ridgeway towards Chinnor. Before reaching Bledlow it turns to go up Wain Hill and forms a loop above Bledlow. Then back to The Ridgeway through the Aston Rowant Nature Reserve. It's about 6 miles long and uses footpaths and bridleways, some of which are very muddy. Sections of the paths are very rough and uneven therefore boots are strongly recommended. The inclines are steady rather than steep but one of the downhill sections is quite steep, however it does have steps.
Lunch: at The Shepherd's Crook - If you'd like lunch make sure you give me your order on Saturday morning!
Other Information: Listen to BBC Oxford on Saturday morning if the weather looks bad. We ask for a £1 donation to this month's chosen charity, BBC Children in Need Appeal.
Looking forward to seeing you there.
