Come with me as I walk the Ebury Way from Watford to Rickmansworth! The walk is around 5 miles from end to end and passes through lovely scenery and even some private fishing lakes as well. If you would like you can even walk around some of the local parks as well to make an entire day of it. There is so much to see and do without spending any money at all!

Hello everybody and welcome to the Pet Training YouTube channel. This is vlog number two of I don’t know how many we’re going to do with these but I definitely plan to do a lot. So today we’re going for quite a long walk. We’re walking about four miles today there. Well 8 miles overall. Uh we’re walking from Watford to Rippsworth along National Cycle Route. I don’t know what cycle route it is. Um the Eb way. If you’ve never heard of Ebway, look it up. It’s a very popular walking and cycle route which I’ve cycled along long many many many times. Forunately unfortunately we’re not cycling today but we’re walking. So next best thing in it really. So join me as we walk 10 miles. Yeah. Also got a backpack um a backpack I can’t say of essentials to keep me going. Yeah, here we Hey guys, as we’re walking along, I want to tell you guys a bit more about my YouTube partnership and how we will be making a bit of money off YouTube every month. Now, the most we’ll be making is about £400. could reach up to possibly even a thousand if I concentrate on my video creation. But you know, as you guys all know, my YouTube videos are very they’re high quality, but not exactly the most best of all time. It’s been 10 years in the making. And the fact that I can now get paid is dream come true for me. Uh 12-year-old me would never have thought that was possible. So, thank you so much, guys. Uh we’re walking we’re walking down quite a very posh street, aren’t we, right now? Uh posh as well. Posh poses as you can get in I suppose. Um we’re about 10 minutes away from the E way and then uh yeah, it’s a long straight line after that. So don’t know how how much I’ll post um along the way. I’ll give you guys little updates as we go through. And then we’ll head to Richmond’ssworth and then I suppose we’ll walk back. I don’t know. We might pop we might pop in for a drink, but I don’t know yet. We’ll see what happens. I don’t have got web spoons. And if you new viewers to the channel, if you don’t know me, I do like a good old weather spoon. So yeah, see you guys on the EP way. We are now officially on the Ebrew way. As you can see, it starts as pretty much a concreted gravel. Well, half concrete, half gravel, half pothole, uh, narrow country road, which if you actually follow it all the way, it leads to the cricket club. So, I have a feeling this road is a private road actually, but there is a right of way. So, they put they I don’t know, they rent it out for people to go on. Um, it’s the main I mean, no, it’s not the main way on on Seway. There’s another way uh which most people use realize but um I prefer this way as it’s just it feels very it feels better. It feels nicer and it’s not as busy. We’re about to hit a bridge. Well, not hit a bridge about to go over a a tiny little bridge which I find quite nice actually. So yeah. Um, yeah. You can see it’s just a very grally path. And you got massive potholes kind of. Look at this. Oh my days. You would not want to go through that. You could swim in that. Oh my days. Look at that. In context, that’s my that’s my shoe. I’m not going to go in there. Well, who would want to? But I must say, lovely views from the start. Clint birds as well. Let’s go. First major landmark on the railway. Well, old railway should I say. bridge over the river cone. Nice view as well. We’re going to carry on walking that because we got a long way to travel. It’s three miles from here. So, we got a lot long way to go. Here we go. Okay, guys. This is when the official cycle route begins. It’s going to be very, very flat. So bit of history about the uh the uh line as say um it was a railway which ran between Watford High well Watford Junction Station um towards C there were two sort of spares. There was one to Coxy Green and there was one to Rivensworth. The one we’re on is the one to Ripworth. Um, the other one within the Croxy Green also has shut down. As you can tell, it is no longer a railway, but you could easily tell that it once was. We might hopefully we get to see some little artifacts from the railway is left behind. You can sort of see that. You’re going to see a lot of that bricks and wood everywhere. It’s just like maze of wood. And now it is starting to rain which actually it’s supposed to be a thunderstorm today. So we picked the best shade to come out but this railway actually did close in the I believe this one was the 1960s I believe 60s or 90s. And the proxy green line lasted a little bit longer unfortunately did reach its demise. And now the only the main proxy station is on the Metropolitan line on the Watford branch which I don’t think is still is I wouldn’t say it’s that popular of a station really but the videos of me walking but there was so obviously the two spurs of the railway were both closed. Um the one to walk green still hasn’t has the alignment but it is now fishing loads and it was going to reopen but they’ve they’ve shaped that. Um this line is funny because it’s rival was the Metropolitan line. It was closed because of the Metropolitan line. And the actual Met line goes over this line, which is funny because imagine having imagine having to get permission give permission to your rival to make a bridge over your over your line that was eventually closed off because of it. I think it’s funny but also sad at the same time because this railway could definitely be used up. It did survive a bit longer because of freight traffic but didn’t last long after that. Here is bridge number one uh which passes over Tulpitz Lane which you can hear. Uh, keep following that. You’ll get to Watford High Street or to um, well, actually towards Rippsworth and it’s pretty cool bridge. But yeah, we got another bridge to go, but we also got to go through Croxley Green. Well, Croxley Mall, which is a nice place. Now, if you haven’t been to Proxy Mall, go there. We’re going to see it in a few minutes. We are now officially at the end of the EU way. Um, it ends with or ends or starts with a a board. There’s also one on the other other side of the line as well and a white post you could call it, I suppose. Now, do I recommend at all? Yes, 100% blue. It’s amazing. It’s very scenic. Um, some parts are a bit little bit industrial, but it’s not too bad. plaque. If you want to read it, please pause the video now and zoom in. But yeah, the the line went down here. It then went over this little bridge here, across this little canal sort of thing, straight across there to a good yard and then Ripmanworth Church Street station. Obviously, the streets still exist and there is a flu. Um, but obviously we can’t go through it anymore cuz that is someone’s house. Uh, so yeah, I hope you have enjoyed the walk. Now, we’re going to have a quick stop at the Pennsylvania pub in Rimsworth. Get a quick uh point and then we’ll be on our way back. I don’t believe I will be the way back. It’s a bit boring. So, we’ll just uh leave it when I have a drink and then we’ll say goodbye and we’ll see you guys soon. See you at the pub. Welcome to Ripmanworth. This this uh block of flats here was the original uh Ripmanworth Church Street station which closed or obviously closed when the line closed and obviously they’ve redeveloped the whole area around there quite a bit. Um, the good job’s gone and everything that was once there is now all gone. I’ve been in these flats cuz we used to know someone who actually lives there. I’m not going to name any names, but uh it’s not the most prettiest of houses. I will be completely honest with you. Now, here is St. Mary’s Church. It’s a Church of England. I believe it’s an Anglican church. Uh, I am also an an Anglican, but I’ve never been to this church for service. Yeah, it is St. Mary’s. So, that’s something that we could do in the in the future. Uh, I won’t spill my church I go to, but uh it’s not very close to this. Um, yeah, see you at the pub. Just leaving Weather Spoons now. It was a lovely drink. Of course, it was a high pudlight. uh 199 in V point which is not bad at all was it? Uh now the charming village of Ribsworth know not village of town. Uh yeah I think it’s well I’m enjoying myself actually today. Um obviously I don’t usually go for this long walks but it’s nice when I do go on them because sometimes you you see things you don’t often see. And I also had something to do today.
