Anyone know any bridle paths in the kings langley area (herts)?

[loulabelle]

My horses are stabled in Kings Langley, but having trouble finding any bridle baths although its quite rural. We do have a trailor but ideally would like to find a route close to home. Anyone have any experiance in the kings langley/abbots langely area of hertfordshire?

Have you tried Ordenance Survey maps of the area?

 

[PeterNatt]

You need the Ordnance Survey Map Landranger 166 available from www.ordnacesurvey.co.uk. This map covers most of Hertfordshire. If you want a good day out go to Ashridge Forest or dunstable downs as it is wonderful in both of them.

Also sign up to the bridleway newsletter for your area on www.bhseast.org.uk

I have just ordered a bespoke map from the o/s website

I put in our yards postcode so that we were at the centre then it shows the relevant routes, its more expensive than the std area ones but it is unique, but I'm planning on photocopying and laminating bits of mine in future so they are easy to take out with me so will be worth it.

Chipperfield Woods? Not too far from you but some areas of the woods you need a permit from local bridleways association.

A permit really? We have taken them through chipperfield woods before opps.

By Ashridge Forest do you mean by the monument? We take them there is a good ride but didn't think of dunstable downs I'll give that a go for sure

Hi

If you fancied meeting up when I get my confidence back to go out hacking, I can show you some good hacks around ashridge that dont need a permit?

Have been riding round there for near enough 6 years so I know a good few routes-did you go on Berkhamsted Common?

I know some in the bedmond/abbots langley area if thats any help? Not really worth taking a trailer to them though.
What about whippy woods and croxley green?
