The first walk is a short but rewarding short pub walk around Christmas Common. It enjoys lots of beautiful woodland paths that are spectacular in bluebell season, a big climb that is rewarded with an epic view over the whole area (walk the route anticlockwise) and a wonderful pub in Christmas Common that makes this a perfect day out. There is a bit of quiet road walking on the route and one steep climb.
The second walk is a slightly longer route that is just as pretty as you enjoy a walk around Watlington Hill. There's a fair bit of climbing, so go prepared with some energy and you will be rewarded with some lovely views and pretty woodland. There is a small section (about 250m) of walking alongside a pretty fast road, so please be careful.
The third route is slightly longer again and offers a scenic circular woodland adventure. The route takes you east around Christmas Common towards the village of Northend and it provides you with more lovely views over the Chilterns. There are some steep hills to climb on this walk as with most routes around Christmas Common and a section of road walking at the start as you walk into the village from the car park.
The forth walk is the longest. It’s a truly epic and strenuous walk around the beautiful area of Christmas Common. There are lots of hills to climb and descend as you go on an adventure to the village of Turville Heath and through Turville Park. There is a section of road walking into Christmas Common at the start and lots of energy required throughout the route, but the pub in the village is wonderful for topping up that energy after the walk.
