Due to the vast amount of coverage by the media regarding obesity and the lack of exercise in both adults and children, we felt that perhaps we could help by producing a book of short walks in order to encourage those people who do not normally walk to get out and enjoy their surroundings and to achieve a healthier lifestyle.
The walks are between 2½-5 miles and have been tried and test-walked by local volunteers.
Walking is good for your health and of course it is one of the few exercises taken at your convenience, without a joining fee or any other cost.
Whether you are walking for health, walking your dog or just taking an evening stroll, we hope this book will help you and your family discover the woodlands, farmland, plant, animals, insects, fungi, ponds and rivers in the area.
The Bricket Wood Residents’ Association together with the Bricket Wood Society have published this book. Local businesses and organisations have kindly sponsored it too. The Publishers have generously given every household in Bricket Wood a free copy in order to encourage them to try the walks.
The Hertfordshire village of Bricket Wood is in the Parish of St. Stephen and is situated between St. Albans and Garston, off Junction 6 of the M1 and Junction 21A of the M25. Bricket Wood Station is on the Abbey Line and runs from St. Albans to Watford.
