Wilstone activities

 A group of walkers

If you like walking, Wilstone offers many good circular walks through varied terrain.
The reservoirs and canal towpaths are the most popular. Many paths to the north of the village just meander through green fields and into quiet lanes. A local would say go down by "duffeses" and through the "millopers".
Try a Circular Walk and have a break or lunch at the Half Moon.

A special area for bird watching and wildlife. The Tring Reservoirs are bird watching hot spots and frequently attract rarer birds. Walking quietly along canal you may catch sudden flash of iridescent blue as Kingfisher flies past, or disturb a Heron. Also watch for Kestrels, Sparrow Hawks and woodpeckers. Flocks of Lapwing feed in surrounding fields and Pollarded willows are home Little Owls. Noisy parties Long Tail Tits move rapidly and noisily through the thicker hedgerows.
a Large Carp  and Tench

Great fishing in the Grand Union Canal Roach, Perch Rudd and in some areas Chub and Tench can be found. Large double figure Carp are taken regularly so be warned do not fish too light.

A car park and swims for disabled anglers are situated by the Wooden Bridge.
