Scouts Escape to the Country

11 Scouts and 3 Explorer Scouts enjoyed a weekend of walking the Chilterns recently, making the most of the Spring sunshine. Following routes that took in both the Chiltern Way and the Ridgeway, the walking groups managed two separate days on the hills, walking over 20 kms in total and gaining both two ‘Hikes Away’ and one ‘Nights Away’. The overnight stay was in the new accommodation recently opened at the Buckinghamshire Scout County campsite ‘Braidwood’ to the northwest of Chesham.
