The Hertfordshire Chain Walk is a series of 15 linked circular walks (hence ‘chain’) through Hertfordshire with a total distance of 140km (87miles). This combination of walks 5 and 6 in the series is 20 km (12 miles) long and passes near Hertford North station, making that the most obvious start- and endpoint for this walk. This route passes through woodlands and pastures, following footpaths and bridleways and an old railway line. It is a pretty and varied walk with more woodlands than I expected to see here. The route is not waymarked and can get quite muddy in several sections.
