Walking in the Chilterns by Duncan Unsworth

A band of chalk hills running north-east from the River Thames and covering parts of Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire, the Chilterns are designated an Area of Outstanding Beauty. The grandeur of a dramatic scarp along the north-west edge contrasts with landscape of a more intimate nature - woods, hedgerows, deep valley and charming villages. Using some of a network of nearly 1000 miles of footpaths and bridleways, this guide describes thirty-five walks in the area. The routes are mainly half-day to gentle full-day outings, designed to take in the best of the Chiltern landscape and to visit historical curiosities, and all but one are circular. A general introduction outlines the geology, history and natural history of the area, and many more details about things of interest are given within each walk description.
