Walk 720 - Dinton Pastures

Seven intrepid ramblers gathered on Sunday the 7th July for a 9 mile walk around Dinton Pastures and surrounding area. Setting off from the Berkshire Museum of Aviation we passed through the scenic Dinton Pastures but not without incident.

A willow tree had fallen into our path prior to us arriving, although it was easily traversable due to the light foliage and wide spread of the branches so we were easily able to walk through unhindered.

Once the fallen willow had been negotiated we continued through the scenic Dinton Pastures and on toward Whistley Green and Twyford.

By good timing we arrived in Twyford for our lunch stop in a coffee shop where the British weather struck again and gave the foliage some watering.

We let the weather pass and continued on our way back towards Dinton Pastures where the weather had cleared enough and the group observed some sailing on the lake.

From the water sports area we then completed a lap around the lake which brought us back on the approach to the start point. Thanks to Barry for leading us today on a very enjoyable walk.

Thanks go to Barry for leading his first walk, and to Stephen for writing it up.
