Middle Claydon walks

A gentle walk near Brill, including a nature reserve with lots of butterflies (in June and July) woods and a hill.

This is the third stage of the multi-day route "Railways and Waterways, between Oxford and London". This walk along the canal towpath passes many bridges and locks, the Tring Reservoirs Nature Reserve, then climbs steadily to the highest point on the Grand Union Canal before gradually descending beside a peaceful chalk river.

This is the second stage of the multi-day route "Railways and Waterways, between Oxford and London". A pleasant meander through the water meadows of the Thame Valley past Notley Abbey and through picturesque villages to the historic gatehouse of Eythrope Park, before diverting up a quiet private road to Stone village. Until the work on HS2 is completed, this stage ends at Stone, a short bus ride from Aylesbury.

This is a circular walk, along footpaths, red ways and a canal towpath. The walking is easy and accessible year round. It is wheelchair friendly, although there is one incline at the beginning of the trail which could present problems for some manual wheelchair users.

This is a reasonably flat walk, much of it beside water (river, canal and lake).

A fairly easy walk from Ye Olde Swan at Woughton on the Green that follows the Grand Union Canal to Campbell Park, returning via Woolstone. All on surfaced paths.

This is a flat walk that takes in some of the lovely scenery of the Chiltern's countryside; including green lanes, footpaths as well as the picturesque settlement of Meadle.

The walk starts at the car park for the Tree Cathedral on Livingstone Drive, Newlands - close to Gulliver's Theme Park and the David Lloyd Sports Centre.

This walk starts and ends at Willen Local Centre (parking). You travel northwards to Tongwell Lake, then westwards to the Grand Union Canal at Giffard Park. Much of the route is southwards alongside the canal until reaching Campbell Park. The route continues southwards beside the canal, leaving the Canal Broadwalk to enter Woolstone in the direction of The Barge pub. It then continues towards the River Ouzel, turning northwards towards Willen Lake and from there back to Willen Local Centre.

A fairly flat route that follows a former railway line, the Grand Union Canal and passes through Stanton Low and Linford Manor Park.

This walk explores the diverse archaeology visible in just one square mile of the Chiltern Hills, visiting Pulpit Hill (an Iron Age Hillfort), the villages of Ellesborough, Great Kimble and Little Kimble, all with interesting churches and a deserted medieval village.

Follow an ancient trade route from Wendover to Chesham through open fields, lovely beech woodland and the peace and quiet of classic Chilterns countryside. The "Chiltern Link" is well waymarked and shown on maps. Thanks to the Chiltern Society’s Donate-a-Gate scheme you can enjoy your walk without the need to clamber over stiles.

A 130m climb up the north face of Coombe Hill is as tough as it gets round here. Starting in Wendover you visit several quieter summits before the big one and are rewarded for your efforts by lovely, varied scenery and great views.

A varied walk taking in lovely woods, a hillfort, beautiful views over Aylesbury Vale and the peaceful Wendover Arm of the Grand Union Canal.

A varied walk climbing to a hillfort in Wendover woods with beautiful views over Aylesbury Vale. Return by the peaceful Wendover Arm of the Grand Union Canal.

The Ridgeway the other way. The National Trail from NE to SW. This Stage 2 is the most undulating with several climbs in and out of valleys and is, therefore, the most strenuous part of The Ridgeway. The route climbs Coombe Hill, passes by Pulpit Hill fort and over Lodge Hill. Goes around Bledlow Great Wood near Chinnor to go along a disused railway and go underneath the M40. It goes along the bottom edge of the Chilterns scarp and passes Watlington Hill.

Circular walk from Wendover to the pub at Swan Bottom, across fields and through woods.

This section of the walk takes you from Wendover down to Buckmoor End (where there is a pit stop and possibly a bacon sarnie!) across in front of Chequers through the nature reserve and over to The Plough at Cadsden.

This walk is about the treats that await you in and around Dancersend Nature Reserve. In spring bluebells, primroses and cowslips, in summer many species of butterflies and the Chiltern gentian, in autumn fungi and the trees with their colourful display and winter where the birds are easier to spot.

A walk from Princes Risborough using the Ridgeway and the Chiltern Way to visit some of the local highlights.

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.

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.

The final stage crosses the Chequers estate along the Ridgeway westward for a short distance, then descends down the Chilterns to Little Kimble station for rail or bus services back to High Wycombe.

Visit two Chiltern Society run nature reserves, a very scenic stretch of the Ridgeway and woods blanketed with bluebells in spring.

A beautiful ridge walk through Chiltern woodlands with some magnificent views as you pass over Coombe Hill.
