23 Oct 2022I walked this on a warm, and slightly overcast Saturday morning from Radlett to Bushy. It hadn't rained a lot recently.
It was a very pleasant walk, and soon after leaving the station at Radlett there are some fairly green public footpaths to end up a lovely section of agricultural land. I went the wrong direction a few times because I wasn't paying attention enough, but no massive detours :-). Into Letchmore Heath there was a little bit of street walking, but it wasn't busy nor unsafe. After crossing the M1 and A41 the path goes through a large Jewish cemetery. I spotted a mobile mast camouflaged as a tree, and then there was a little bit of street walking into Bushey itself.
Lovely walk, albeit a tiny bit muddy in some places.

25 Jun 2022I walked from Radlett to Bushey. I quite enjoyed this route, found it very easy to navigate and going away from the main road in Radlett helped make the walk calmer and more scenic. Potential for some muddy sections (there was one short very muddy section with logs to help out when I walked) and a couple of flights of steps to contend with but otherwise it was a pleasant walk - particularly the Radlett end.

12 Nov 2021I walked from Radlett to Bushey.
The first part of this walk shares many paths with Watrad through large open fields and along quiet pavement-less roads. The very first part goes behind Radlett rather than through which is a nicer option.
The path diverges at the Three Compasses in Patchetts Green along muddy paths and some flights of steps. Then through a large Jewish cemetery followed by more muddy paths past some schools. Much of this walk is unlit. Finally a short residential road section to Bushey High Street.
A pleasant but not very inspiring walk.
