What's On

Walks

This walk will be led by Roger Green and organised jointly with the Railway Ramblers. It will follow the route of the Nickey Line from Boxmoor through Hemel Hempstead, tracing what remains of the Nickey Line. The route will use footpaths, streets, a meadow, and a short length of the old railway embankment. There is the opportunity for refreshments after about 2 miles, and lunch after about 3.5 miles. The return to the start point uses a different route, although one can catch a No 500 bus back to the start point

Meet at Hemel Hempstead station for 10.40am, following the arrival of trains from Euston and Clapham Junction. Parking at the station costs £4.80 on Saturdays. Exit the station and turn left, assembling near the cycle track

Numbers are limited, and places must be booked Please contact Roger on roger_green2015@icloud.com, or phone 0i442 257030 to book a place

This walk will be lead by Heidi Mansell (Harpenden Town Council's People and Wildlife Officer) and will start from Roundwood Halt in Harpenden. Heidi will have a very sophisticated bat detector which will enable her to easily identify a number of different species. As well as the the two common pipestrelle species we hope to detect (and see !) at least a couple of others. Booking not required but to give us an idea of likely numbers, please let Geoff know if you plan to attend (geoffbunce@talk21.com).
