On Sunday I was out in the hills for the first time this year. Apart that is for the paths in Wendover Woods. Yesterday I started at the sign for The Ridgway on Wendover High Street and soon was through the outskirts of the village and beginning the gradual slope up to Boswells Farm. In the fields on both sides of the track were lots of newly born lambs with their mothers. My phone is not great for photos, but here they are.
Just past the farm the track turns into a footpath that makes it way to the top of the ridge. All the way up the hill the beech trees were just coming into leaf.
Then along the ridge at the top, the bluebells were out in force.
Eventually the path crosses a road and I'm into Wendover Woods. The path leads eventually to the cafe and car park. Joining lots of visitors the main route reaches a steep downhill path with a handrail for the last section. The paths were still muddy in places but there were enough dry edges not to be any problem. Looking forward to another of my circular walks in the hills.
