Walk

moderate nice pub Walk

Meet at 10am in front of the Maharajah’s Well in Stoke Row. Please park responsibly and lift-share where possible.

We will begin the walk by heading south, passing through the estate of Wyfold Court, an impressive neo-gothic mansion. We’ll then head west through a variety of woodland on the way to Woodcote, before stopping for lunch.

The highlight of the walk will be after lunch when we’ll have time to visit Nuba Survival, a remarkable artwork made by local sculptor John Buckley.

We’ll then pass through Checkendon Court and head to the Black Horse for a pub stop, before returning to Stoke Row.

Please bring a packed lunch and plenty to drink.

Booking onto a walk

Most walks do not require advance booking, and you can just turn up on the day. We encourage those comfortable with Meetup to indicate there that you plan to come though, so that others can see there will be plenty of people there – this really helps to encourage new members to come along.
For the few which still have limited numbers, this is handled via Meetup. Follow the link to a walk’s Meetup page (or press 🎟 Register / 🎟 Tickets / 🎟), and mark yourself as attending.
Social and other events may have their own booking system – please see the event description.

Pace Guide

Gentle: led at a gentle pace with regular short breaks for water or rest. Should be suitable for anyone capable of the distance. (Expect 2–2.5 mph.)
Medium: led at an intermediate pace with fewer breaks but still suitable for most walkers. (Expect 2.5–3 mph.)
Fast: led at a quick pace with minimal breaks. May be a challenge for those with less fitness. (Expect 3 mph+.)

Speeds quoted are only a rough guide, including time spent on short water/rest stops and negotiating stiles/gates/roads etc. but not that spent on longer lunch or pub stops.
