We start walking through Oxhey Park alongside the River Colne which forms the Ebury Way route through Holywell towards the Croxley area. We then cross Croxley Common Moor on a good path to the bridges across the River Gade and GU canal. Here we’ll have a short mid – morning break by the lock. (not far from Croxley Stn). Then continue along the canal towpath passing lakes as we approach Batchworth where the R. Chess joins the waterways. We’ll walk alongside Batchworth lake to the Café/toilets at the Aquadrome for our picnic lunch break with time to use the café.. If some walkers wish to take a direct route from here to Rickmansworth Station the total distance will be 6 mls. After lunch (footpaths near the lakes permitting!) we will walk around Bury Lake\, seeing views of Stockers Lake before heading to Rickmansworth Station\, hopefully by 2pm. (Although paths are generally good with some paved\, part of the towpath may be muddy after recent rain with puddles so best to wear walking boots).

Our picnic lunch will possibly be along this quiet section of canal. (there will be a slight footpath diversion alongside Wilstone Reservoir due to ongoing Works\, so viewing the reservoir will be restricted). Soon after we will have a half hour refreshment stop for drinks etc. at Mead’s Farmhouse Kitchen\, where there is a café\, farm shop and toilets. (possibly allow a little space in your rucksack as you may be tempted to indulge in the farm shop!). Then we cross fields to join the GU canal to Startops/Marsworth Reservoirs\, passing many interesting canal locks on the way back to Tring Station.
