Harlington and Sharpenhoe Clappers
All went well. Grey but no rain and clear so could see views. 19 of us, no problems with steep steps up. Pub ok, not phased that I had said 16 and 19 turned up! We all sat outside, food delivered reasonabLy quickly not brilliant but no complaints. Some friends of GC turned up who were local knew the walk and and smoothed out any glitches. Brilliant!

There is one steep climb via steps (about 80) up the Sharpenhoe Clappers but there is an alternative route round the base if necessary, however this would mean missing the spectacular views
