Overview

Starting from a northern edge of Witney, this 11 mile walk heads towards Combe and crosses gently undulating low level countryside. We pass through New Yatt and skirt past North Leigh. If the River Evenlode flood plain is not waterlogged we will reach Combe, and briefly walk beside the Evenlode. On the return trip we touch on Wychwood Way, and reach Witney via Poffley End.
