Morning birding walk along the Chess Valley, Rickmansworth

To find the car park, look for the Miller & Carter sign on the Rickmansworth Road and turn into it, keeping left to head past the adventure playground to the car park.

We will then follow the beautiful Chess Valley northwards through a variety of habitats and back to the car park, a total of 4k. The walk is flat, but it could be muddy.

The event is free but a voluntary donation of £2 per person is suggested.

You are welcome to join us for lunch afterwards at the Coach & Horses nearby. They have ciabattas, pizzas, salads and other dishes at reasonable prices.

Please try and car share. If you would like to do that but are not sure who else is attending, feel free to email the organiser, Rob Blythe, on rbblythe@hotmail.com. Give him your phone number, your address, whether you would prefer to drive, be a passenger or either of those, and whether you intend staying for lunch. By doing so, you are giving him permission to pass on your contact details to others attending the event to see whether car sharing is viable.

All welcome, whatever your level of birdwatching knowledge. It will go ahead if it is raining. Call Rob on 07512 704744 for further details.

We might take photos of the event to publicise future events. If you do not wish to appear in them, please let the leader know.
