A short walk across Croxley Common Moor and along the River Gade, hoping to see redwing, finches, grey heron and maybe even a kingfisher.
About this Event

From the A4145 Tolpits Lane, turn into Old Approach and either park on the left after the road curves left, or turn right into Moor Lane Crossing and park after 200 yards on the left.

We will meet in Moor Lane Crossing, where it crosses Ebury Way at the entrance to the Moor.


Our walk will take us across Croxley Common Moor and along the river, returning along much the same route of about 3km in total. There are a couple of benches beside the river and the path is good crossing the Moor but more uneven along the river.

As well as finches and winter thrushes, it is a good area for starling, kestrel, grey wagtail and woodpeckers.

Afterwards, you are welcome to join us for lunch 2 miles away at The Feathers, 34 Church St, Rickmansworth WD3 1DJ. Parking can be found just beyond the pub at Talbot Road Short Stay Car Park, Rickmansworth WD3 1HD.
