Pick up your Nordic walking poles and stride out from Jerome K Jerome's "bustling, lively little town" of Marlow onto the banks of the Thames where "the river itself is at its best". As we walk along the river, the ‘Wild Wood’ (Quarry Wood) of Kenneth Grahame’s Wind in the Willows rises up on the opposite bank. We cross the river at Bourne End passing over Cock Marsh with its Bonze Age burial mounds and up onto Winter Hill. From here we explore the ‘Wild Wood’ before dropping back down to cross the iconic suspension bridge over the Thames and back into Marlow.
Meet at the entrance to Higginson Park on the High Street.
8 miles (13 km)
£8 pay on the day (+ £2 poles hire, if required). Please let me know whether to expect you!
We follow well trodden paths and tracks which can be rough and muddy. One steep ascent and descent.
Please bring drink and snacks for personal consumption on the walk. Post walk refreshment in Marlow (pay locally).
We can also visit the Artists and Makers Fair in Marlow
