Wallington is a small Hertfordshire village surrounded by quiet farmland, and this walk is a peaceful loop through the woods and fields around it.

The route follows sections of woodland and country tracks to the neighbouring village of Clothall and its pretty little church, then heads back across more open countryside with wide views over the rolling fields. At just under 5 miles it makes a relaxed morning or afternoon out.

This is a lovely countryside walk from the small village of Wallington.

The first half of the walk is a simple and peaceful stroll through sections of woodland and along country tracks until you reach the village of Clothall and visit its pretty little church.

The second half of the walk is then a lovely long walk back to the start through some more exposed and open countryside with wonderful views of the sweeping undulations to your left as you go.

There are some short sections of road walking in and out of the village, but it's not too busy or fast. You also have to cross a faster road a couple of times on the route, so be careful here.
