Top 5 walks in the area
| The Ridgeway is 87 miles long, much of it following the ancient chalk ridge route used by prehistoric man. The Ridgeway National Trail offers walkers, cyclists and horse riders the chance to get away from the bustle of life in this busy part of England. Perfect, but not too strenuous, for long distance use, the trail is also ideal for day trips. |  |
| The River Thames Path is a well-signposted, long-distance footpath for walkers, which follows the River Thames for most of its length. The path passes peaceful water meadows, rich with wildlife, and many lovely villages. It is suitable for walkers of all abilities. | |
| Watlington Hill is a great place for observing the previously endangered birds of prey, red kites, which were introduced into the area in the 1990s. | |
| Wittenham Clumps is actually a set of small hills in the parish of Little Wittenham. They are mostly grassed, but wooded at the top, giving them their distinctive and prominent appearance. It is maintained as a nature reserve by the Northmoor Trust. | |
| The White Horse of Uffington is thought to be the oldest hill figure in Britain. It is only part of the unique complex of ancient remains that are found at White Horse Hill and beyond, spreading out across the high chalk downland. |
