This route leaves Marlow over the Bridge and along Bisham Road before passing through a snug kissing gate and striking south east following a public footpath across fields. Passing into the woods rising up the hill from the valley bottom, the climb is moderately strenuous through the woods up 25% incline paths to the top of the ridge, from which point there is a gentle decent towards Maidenhead. Following farm paths and more kissing gates, the route skirts the western edge of Cookham Dean Common, heading south through grass and through woods on earth paths. Before heading east, the route loops past the Golden Ball pub (though this loop can easily be omitted) and then past the entrance to the National Trust 'Brick and Tile Works' woodland area with picnic benches. Heading east, the route follows farm lanes before cutting through Furze Platt via fenced footpaths and a short section of housing to emerge onto Maidenhead's North Town Moor. Following a stream south, the route follows Maidenhead's 'Green Way' footpath for much of the remainder of the journey, ending by reaching Maidenheads town centre via an underpass and a couple of shopping streets to reach the destination at the Maudsley Memorial Garden
