MWC Summer Hike, 18th August 2018

Escape the hustle and bustle of the city and join us as we hike through breathtaking countryside. This is a great opportunity to get fit and connect with some inspiring women.

About the hike: We’ll be doing the Chess Valley walking route which starts in Rickmansworth and ends in Chesham. The Chess Valley has some of the most attractive countryside in the Chiltern Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This is a landscape rich in wildlife, with a long and fascinating history. Along the way there are historic buildings and estates, water meadows, ancient field systems and nature reserves.
