A great rural hiking escape and a chance to see the River Thames as most Londoners haven't - tranquil and meandering through lush countryside away from London. Home to ducks and swans, settled in a gorgeous woodland, meadow and countrified landscape with picturesque riverside cottages, ancient villages, overhanging Weeping Willow trees, locks and a dramatic 200m footbridge across the river Thames, let us show you the rural Thames.
Highlights:
• A high chance of seeing Red Kites - a beautiful and rare bird of prey
• Hike a stunning section of the rural River Thames
• Explore gorgeous woodland trails in the Chiltern Hills
• Visit the Georgian town of Marlow
• Explore an island in the River Thames
• Cross the exhilarating 61m Hambleden Weir foot bridge
• Visit the ancient village of Hambleden including its church which dates back over 1000 years
This whole area of the Chiltern Hills was designated in 1965 as an official Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to recognise and protect its picturesque beauty.
