Location Notes:

There is no official car park but you can park either side of Garston Park. There are proper parking bays at the other side of the park on Coates Way and you can easily wonder across the park past the children's playground. Garston Park leads under the M1 through woods to Bricket Wood Common and then over to the lovely bridle paths and open areas of the Munden House Estate. The area stretches between Garston, Bricket Wood, Radlett and Aldenham. Routes from this venue may include paved pathways, woodland footpaths, tracks and open fields and gentle inclines.
