Overview

This is a lovely springtime walk which provides an opportunity to view the amazing, colourful display of azaleas and rhododendrons in Valley Gardens while they are at their best. We then continue around the lake before branching off to pass through great open areas of the park with amazing views from the Bronze Horseman on Snow Hill down the Long Walk to Windsor Castle and return via the Obelisk erected in memory of the Duke of Cumberland, main landscaper of the Park.
