With Olga. Another short one. We drove to the car park by Wellonhead Bridge on the canel near Aston Clinton. Down to cross the Upper Icknield Way, then up through the golf course to the trig point on Aston Hill. Over the field and easily through woods to the top of Haddington Hill where a sign on a big stone advertises that this ois the summit of the Chilterns (as it is also of Buckinghamshire). There’s a great labyrinth of paths and tracks here and we wandered down these in what seemed the rough direction of Wendover. More care would have been good as we ended up coming down by Halton Camp, an unwelcoming neighbourhood, all barbed wire and warning signs with pictures of German Shepherd dogs. We walked round this, which was a bit tedious, to pick up the Upper Icknield Way, heading left through the woods after about a km to do the last wee bit along the canel.
