This route starts on Long Lane (Rickmansworth 61 bridleway) and continues generally north-eastwards parallel to the M25 boundary to Shepherd's Lane (public road).

At the time of the 2023 Access Survey (18 Feb 23), the route was open and available for use with no obstructions. There was a 'public footpath' fingerpost at the junction with Shepherd's Lane and a waymark arrow at the junction with Long Lane (Rickmansworth 61 bridleway). There was a separate unsigned route used by riders and cyclists just north of the footpath steps at Shepherd's Lane.
