Date: Saturday 7th February 2026.  Distance: 6 miles. Leader: Angela Vasylenko

 

Our select group of four set off from Lane End car park, in just a little drizzle.  After that, there was hardly any rainfall, in contrast to the forecast!  We walked through fields down and up to Mousells Wood, then through Little Frieth and descended down Adam's Wood.  The tricky last section, steep and with wet chalk/mud/leaves, was handled well (sticks helped). Skirting Skirmett, we climbed up to Parmoor, then through part of Frieth village, enjoying the displays of snowdrops at the church. Down and up again towards Lane End, we walked past Wycombe Court House and up to the high street. A "duck pond tour" took us back to the cars.  Yes, there was mud, puddles, and quagmires by some gates, but a little more track/road walking avoided the worst. Enjoyed by all!
