The River Chess is a shallow chalk stream and the Chess Valley walk broadly follows its course between Chesham and Rickmansworth. The Chess Valley walk extends for ten miles between the towns of Rickmansworth and Chesham, each of which has a tube station on the Metropolitan Line of the London Underground, enabling the whole walk to be done using public transport. Two intermediate tube stations at Chorleywood and Chalfont & Latimer each have connecting public footpaths, providing possible route variations.
