Goring & Streatley to Henley-on-Thames
A station-to-station walkOxfordshireSouth East England
A pleasant route starting with a little street walking before public footpaths and the Chiltern Way, through fields and lovely forest, then a long stretch on quiet lanes that were once drovers' roads, with some steep inclines and declines through woods. Narrow and sheltered footpaths and a churned-up bridleway near Henley can be muddy in wet weather. Follows the Chiltern Way Extension in the early part. Woodcote has a convenience store and cafe.
Woodland: a third under tree cover.
Lunch: Several pubs along the route.
Warnings: Steep steps down to and up from the slightly busy and dangerous A4074 crossing. Narrow, sheltered footpaths and a bridleway near the Henley end become muddy in wet conditions.
