Book 2: Walk 1 Monks Risborough to
Wendover via Coombe Hill T=2.1
Train: Take the 17:53
Aylesbury train from London
Marylebone to Monks Risborough,
arriving at 18:45. Return trains from Wendover are at 21:26;
21:56 and 22:56. Buy a day return to Wendover.
Distance: 6 miles or 10 km for those more metrically
minded.
Difficulty: 4 out of 10.
A
couple of us did this walk as a short winter evening walk and it occurred to me
that it would make a nice spring sunset walk with freshly sprouted beech leaves.
With any luck, we should arrive at Coombe Hill for sunset with a gentle dusk
decent to Wendover for a late dinner or nibbles at the Shoulder of Mutton Pub (next to the station). More details and instructions can be found here.
Fingers
crossed for good conditions!

Intend going.
Just n=2 set off under w=cloudy-skies for a lovely evening walk through the fresh iridescent leaves of the beech trees along the way….Notwithstanding the clouds (and a light shower), we were treated to some nice sunset color on the western horizon and more significantly bumped into a w=badger on its evening promenade...We arrived at Coombe Hill for the sunset and made our way down to Wendover for a quick meal before catching the 21:56....A good evening walk to remember for this time next year....
