Walk 202: Breachwood Green North-West Loop

4.4 miles (7 km) with 73m of total ascent

Offley footpath 3 between points 4 & 5

We have added this walk because we found out that there are plans for a solar farm in the area and we wanted to take the chance to enjoy the rolling Hertfordshire countryside before the landscape changes.

The walk starts and finishes at The Red Lion in Breachwood Green and is one of four walks that start and finish in the village. It passes close to three other pubs along the way. You will be walking close to Luton airport, so you will hear the planes taking off and landing during the walk.

We didn't see any livestock along the route. The start/finish point is 4.6 miles E from Luton railway station by road.

Walk 151: Great Offley West Loop

5.7 miles (9.2 km) with 124m of total ascent

The footpath between points 4 & 5

This is an excellent walk for those who want to stride out across rolling hills with some open views over the north-east Hertfordshire countryside. The walk starts in the village of Great Offley then heads west to Mangrove Green where you will find the King William IV pub/restaurant at the halfway point. The route then returns over fields and through woodland.
