Join us on Saturday 25 April for a scenic hike through the beautiful Ashridge Estate in the Chiltern Hills. Expect stunning views from Ivinghoe Beacon and Pitstone Hill, lush woodlands, a walk past the grand Ashridge college building and great company. This hike is suitable for relatively fit individuals due to the distance and elevation.
