2.5 miles (4 km) with 21m of total ascent

The view from Codicote bridleway 25 at point 7

This is our second walk from Rabley Heath and is one of the shortest in the Hertfordshire Walker collection. It follows well-defined footpaths, bridleways, and quiet country lanes across some lovely countryside. The walk starts and finishes at The Robin Hood & Little John pub at Rabley Heath then passes close to The Lytton Arms which involves a 525m detour at point 6 in the walk.

Walk 283: Much Hadham West Loop

7.4 miles (11.9 km) with 104m of total ascent

The view as you leave Much Hadham

This is a great walk for those who enjoy wide open views across rolling countryside well away from traffic and people. At times all you will hear is birdsong and the occasional plane overhead. There is a good mix of footpaths, bridleways and byways with some shaded stretches.

Walk 282: Stanstead Abbotts North-East Loop

4.8 miles (7.7 km) with 57m of total ascent

Hollycross Lake at point 17

This is a wonderful walk from the village of Stanstead Abbotts. You will follow the rivers Ash and Lea, walk along a canal towpath, pass nature reserves popular with birdwatchers so take your binoculars, gaze over peaceful lakes, walk along quiet stretches where you can enjoy uninterrupted birdsong, and follow the route of a dismantled railway branch line.
