    Don’t expect an easy-going walk on the 21.1 km Mill End, Southend and Frieth Circular, which sees an elevation gain of 720 m, but a rewarding loop that unveils a highlight reel of the spectacular scenery sketched across the Chilterns. This wonderland of a montage includes woodland, open fields, villages, Frieth Hill, and a small section will take you along the Thames. The 21.1 km walk may be tiresome for children, but it’s up to your discretion if you think they can take on this challenging circuit!
