Walk 195 | Train to Trail | Tring to Berkhamsted

Huge thanks to @KyranMccourt for joining me on this celebratory walk, marking the milestone of 1,000 subscribers!

Join us as we step into the heart of the Hertfordshire countryside on this immersive 10.4-mile walk between Tring and Berkhamsted.

Beginning at Tring Station, our route meanders along the Grand Union Canal to New Ground then climbs gently to Wigginton Bottom, before tracing the ancient line of Grim’s Ditch into the shaded paths of Shrubb’s Wood. From there, it leads us to the historic village of Cholesbury, circling the remnants of an Iron Age fort and crossing the peaceful expanses of Cholesbury Common and Hawridge Common.

Our journey continues through Heath End, passes the remains of The Chapel of St Mary Magdalene, before slipping under the A41 and into the vibrant streets of Berkhamsted, where the walk concludes at the town’s station. A blend of history, woodland, and sweeping views, this route offers a rich tapestry of rural England at its finest.
