Beaconsfield to Slough
A station-to-station walkBuckinghamshireSouth East England
The woods (Burnham Beeches and Egypt Woods) were stunning. A largely urban or semi-urban route between two towns, with a reasonable amount of greenery through woods and parkland. A significant amount of traffic-free tarmac, plus kissing gates and stiles and some very uneven terrain. Passes through Burnham Beeches and Egypt Woods, Farnham Park (the national baseball and softball centre) and Slough's Salt Hill, Godolphin and Baylis parks. Near the hamlet of Egypt.
Woodland: a quarter under tree cover.
Warnings: Some sections involve walking in the road. A short stretch at the top of Burnham Beeches needs care during the school run or rush hour. Some on-road sections were quiet on a Sunday but may be busier at other times.
