Incorporating parts of the Cotswolds, Chilterns and North Wessex Downs - all areas of outstanding natural beauty - Oxfordshire boasts a great diversity of landscape. Within its boundaries you will also find ancient forests, areas of wilderness, ironstone uplands, peaceful vales and a host of delightful villages. All are well watered by the tranquil Thames and its charming tributaries: Cherwell, Evenlode and Windrush. "Walking in Oxfordshire" has been written for anyone wanting to explore the county. It contains 36 half-day or easy full-day walks, designed to take in the best of the landscape and to visit places of interest. In many areas there is a choice of two or three routes. For those who enjoy pub walks, details of 50 pubs are provided; for family walkers, there is a good selection of shorter routes and places for refreshments (including 10 teashops) suitable for children; and if you lack a car, all walks are accessible by public transport.
Leslie Tomlinson is a lifelong walker who has lived in Oxfordshire for 35 years. since taking early retirement from scientific research in 1989 he has enjoyed exploring the county's network of footpaths
