COUNTRYSIDE WALK: HENLEY, THAMES, and WOODS 🌳🌲🌿
Details
A 5 Mile Figure of Eight Stunning Countryside and Thamespath Walk.
Henley on Thames, the beautiful market town set on the Thames in the midst of the stunning Oxfordshire Chiltern Hills.
Henley is the home of the famous Henley Regatta and Henley Festival. From there we will embark upon a walk through scenic rural Oxfordshire.
We walk, along the Thames Path from Henley, to Marsh Meadows to Mill Lane Weir and then back to Henley centre before striding out towards Remenham Woods in loop returning back to Henley.
This day out will also be a great opportunity to socialise and make new friends. We will finish the walk back in Henley on Thames, close to a large pub where the socialising can continue.
We start the event at Henley Station at 12 noon. Trains are available from Paddington Station in Central London. Journey time is approximately 1 hour and 10 mins with up to 2 changes (usually at Slough and/or Twyford).
Aim to arrive at Paddington at about 10am (there will not be a host at Paddington) if you want to take advantage of group travel discounts (I/3 off), and also allow time to purchase tickets etc. You can organise to meet others for group tickets (minimum 3 people) in the comments section below.
Trains back from Henley to London are available at half hourly intervals.
Look for Ken with the Ken's Events/Meetup Flag, inside Paddington station and outside Henley Station.

RISKS: In these walks we use; pavements, cross busy roads, public parkland, towpaths, other public paths, rights of way, bridlepaths, country lanes and other recognised paths and tracks through woodland, bush and countryside. Please only wear good sturdy shoes, preferably walking boots and take care as surfaces may be uneven, tree roots may protrude, there may be low overhanging branches and some paths are also used by joggers and cyclists and sometimes cars (country lanes) If you require insurance for these walks then you must arrange this yourself.
Unfortunately no dogs and small children are permitted on this countryside walk as we will encounter farm animals during this walk.
Please dress appropriately for weather conditions, and always carry a bottle of water.
Please note that there is a £5 meetup organisers contribution for this countryside walk for guests and those members who do not yet hold the Ken's Event Card. You are recommended to take out the Ken's Event Card for £25 (which lasts for a full 12 months from date of issue) to avoid paying the meetup organisers contribution each time you attend a walk. You can obtain a card during the event if you wish.
Please arrive in good time to allow opportunity to use toilets at the start of the walk as there may not be any toilet breaks available during the walk.
