Walk with Us
At Pipsticks Walks we offer some great walking throughout the year in the Chiltern Hills, Thames Valley and North Wessex Downs. With great transport links (road, train or bus) to the area from London, Oxford and beyond our walks are perfect for a stress-free day out or a short break in the countryside.
Join one of our friendly Group Walks or activities, or opt for Private Guiding for your own exclusive activity on a day to suit you.
The Perfect Day Out
The historic English landscape is mapped with miles of ancient ways just waiting for you to explore and discover on foot.
All our walks are carefully chosen for their interest and for your enjoyment. Small groups ensure a personal experience and there will always be plenty of interest along the way.
What’s On
Group Walks are listed below - just click on the walk for further details. Also check our ‘Walks and Courses’ page. Our programme is continually evolving, so if you cannot find a suitable walk for you please revisit us or let us know and we will see what we can do.
What to Expect
Details about each walk is provided in the walk description. You will find more information on our Walks and Courses and Need to Know pages.
On the day of your walk we will meet at the stated place and time. After introductions and a walk briefing we will set off to explore. You can expect plenty of interest along the way - such as flora, fauna, landscape, history, and more. There will always be time for photo stops and, of course, to admire the view. And we can usually find a welcoming cafe or pub!
Your enjoyment and safety is important to us. The land where we walk is, in the main, classified as 'low level' terrain - generally below 300m / 985ft. We mostly follow good well defined tracks and paths. However, the area is not without its ‘ups and downs’ and when exploring the hills our total ascent during a day walk can often be well over 300m. Some climbs or descents may be steep, but not too long! Other walks will have little significant ascent.
Group Walk Fees
Fees for our programmed Group Walks are given in each walk description. Most walks are between £15 and £35 per person.
