Walker review
Lovely walk through woodlands, extremely muddy in Winter, wellies definitely required; would like to complete again in the dryer months. Close to A34 at points and so lots of road noise but still enjoyed the woods.
Walker review
Great walk round the woods. The stretch along Kennington is loud due to the A34, so a route back through Bagley Wood might be more relaxing. Keep an eye on the app as the route is not signposted at all.
