We are the West Berkshire Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Dawn T.
This is an undulating walk through several areas of woodland.
We head out from Goring along the Chiltern Way, into Great Chalk Wood over to Blackbirds Bottom and into Little Oaken Wood. After wandering through the woods, we continue to Straw Hill via The Almshouses at Goring Heath. We should have great views on top of Straw Hill along the River Thames and Mapledurham. After a short walk to Hardwick house, we go up to Path Hill to rejoin The Chiltern Way to Hartslock, where we join the Thames Path and walk to Gate Hampton Manor and back into Goring.
Please dress appropriately for the weather on the day. There is a reasonable amount of shade on the walk.
There are a number of ascents on this walk some on decent paths but not all so please wear footwear with some support.
Please bring Food and Drink for the day.
Numbers are not limited but please book on line at the website link by 6pm, Saturday, 9 August.
Please meet at the end of Manor Road in Goring, where there is a small parking area. This is popular with dog walkers so if full, please park considerately along Manor road and car share where possible.
