Sparsholt & West Wood
The walk takes us through West Wood, and is a mixture of open fields and shaded paths, in anticipation of yet another balmy summers day, and was dry and firm on the recce.
There are NO stiles. There is longish slow hill soon after we start and another shorter steeper one towards the end, but crampons definitely not required.
It is slightly under 5 miles, and we should aim to start at 10.15am. We can use the facilities at the pub before departing, so please aim to arrive soon after 10.00am.
