Other walks in the area
Oxford to Thame
This is the first stage of the multi-day route "Railways and Waterways, between Oxford and London".
A varied countryside walk linking open farmland, landscaped parkland and a world-renowned golf course, with highlights including Waterperry house and gardens, the first sight of the River Thame at Bow Bridge and Rycote Chapel.
Railways and Waterways, between Oxford and London
A mainly level circular walk of about 150 miles along the waterways between Oxford and the London suburbs. It can be done in day trips by train or express bus from all the towns en route.
This circular long-distance path starts in rural Oxfordshire, then follows the Grand Union Canal, which has a close-knit narrowboat community, into the Chilterns before winding through the suburbs of London. It crosses the playing fields of Eton to join the Thames Path, which meanders all the way back to Oxford. The route passes over and under bridges of every kind, through country parks, idyllic villages with thatched cottages, grand estates and historic market towns like Aylesbury, Henley-on-Thames and Wallingford. The lakes, chalk rivers and water meadows are home to a diversity of wildlife, and traditional waterside pubs provide welcome refreshment.
Rushbed Woods and Brill circular
A gentle walk near Brill, including a nature reserve with lots of butterflies (in June and July) woods and a hill.
Cowley to Shotover Circular, Oxford
This circular walk goes through three SSSIs from urban Oxford. Starting from urban Cowley, walk up to the top of Shotover country park SSSI (Site of Special Scientific Interest) for nature and views to the South West, then through Rock Edge SSSI, for Upper Jurassic limestone, and then through Lye Valley SSSI to experience nationally rare calcareous fen habitat from the last ice age.
Hampton Gay
Stroll across the meadows to an isolated church and ruined 16th-century manor house.
Cherwell valley
Visit four historic churches, plus a ruined manor house and a pretty riverside return.
Hampton Poyle & Bletchingdon
Climb to a pretty village with a historic church, country house and village green.
Wolvercote Circular
An almost flat, circular walk following the Thames Path and Oxford Green Way. The walk starts in Wolvercote, passes Godstow Abbey, then follows the banks of the River Thames, taking in some interesting islands and weirs. The return is past Wytham Woods and across fields, returning via the Trout Inn for well-earned refreshments at the end of the walk.
