Lye Valley, Shotover and Horspath

Sunday, 27 January 2019

Start time: 10:30

Moderate 6 miles / 9.7 km

Group Hike Oxfordshire

We'll cut up through Lye Valley, up Old Road and up the Hill to Shotover Country Park, then through the woods, down the other side, into Horspath, and follow Horspath Road back into Oxford. This will potentially be quite muddy in places, so walking boots are recommended. We can finish up with a drink in the Marsh Harrier, and potentially lunch there or at one of the other pubs on Cowley Road. Pub stop at end.

Starting point

Oxford, outside The Marsh Harrier, Marsh Road. Parking on the single yellow lines on Marsh Road isn't restricted on Sundays. There's also some street parking on the surrounding roads. The No 5 bus from Oxford city centre stops near the end of Marsh Road
