A fantastic forest walk with amazing views from above over the Chilterns, particularly towards the north.
On the way, you will encounter a memorial by W A Robertson, who gave this area to the National Trust in memory of his brothers who died in the Great War.
A great and enjoyable steep set of wooden stairs by the end of this stretch, too, as you rejoin the Chiltern Way.

The Clappers is a fascinating clump of trees on top of what was an Iron Age fort (!) The ascent is easy, but hikers should note that the descent (down a perilously steep set of makeshift wooden stairs) is challenging in the wet.
