Walk details
We start from Radley station with a short stretch of quiet road walking to get to the Thames path. Lunch will be at Iffley Lock after which we’ll visit the Four Candles, the first pub stop. Once refreshed it’s a short walk through Oxford before joining a path to Wolvercote. Here we will visit the White Hart, the second of our pub stops.
