We are the Windsor & District Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

Come and see this unique tradition where the Kings Swan Marker, Vintners and Dyers all dressed in their uniforms come and check the Swan population on the river Thames. The swans in the River Thames all belong either to the Sovereign or to the Worshipful Companies of Vintners or Dyers who were granted the privilege of ownership by the Crown in the Fifteenth Century.
After the Swan Markers have travelled through the lock we will have a short circular walk across Dorney Common to the Jubilee River and then back to the cafe in Eton Wick. Bring a drink to have at the lock.
PLEASE NOTE EARLY START TIME. Meet in the free Recreation Ground car park, Haywards Mead, off the B3026 Eton Wick Road. Carousel bus 15 from Slough to Taplow Sainsbury's passes along Eton Wick Road. Alight at Bells Lane.
