Hertfordshire and North Middlesex Ramblers chairman, Roger Bangs, picks five picturesque walks in Herts over the Christmas period
5 festive walks

The festive period, with all the pressures it can bring, is an ideal time to get out into the winter countryside to enjoy and appreciate the season, to take some ‘me time’ and reflect and relax. The Ramblers Festival Of Winter Walks from December 20 to January 5 involves groups across Herts putting on a varied programme of walks which everyone is welcome to join. Here are five examples.

Kings Langley, 6 miles December 21, 10am

A very scenic walk with Watford and Three Rivers Ramblers in the foothills of the Chilterns. Visiting the quintessentially English village of Chipperfield with its medieval church, common and cricket pitch, walkers will stop here for a midmorning break. The return route takes in part of the Grand Union Canal with lunch at The Saracen’s Head in Kings Langley.

Hitchin, 16 miles December 22, 8am
