Henley Walks and Route Map

If you fancy a lovely Henley walk, we have 4 circular routes to choose from? Henley-on-Thames is a beautiful town on the River Thames and surrounded by wonderful Oxfordshire countryside. The Henley routes we have on the Oxfordshire Walks app range from 1.25 miles to 10.5 miles.

The first Henley walk is short (1.25 miles) family-friendly stroll around the Mill Meadows in the wonderful town of Henley-on-Thames. This route is a simple walk that takes you along the River Thames via the pretty Marsh Meadows and then takes you on a path through some nice woodland. Finally, it visits the Mill Meadows adventure playground which is great for the kids.

The second route is another relatively short Henley walk (3.5 miles) and heads north from Mill Meadows, crosses the bridge and then takes you on a lovely loop of walking made up of woodland, open countryside, quiet lanes and of course a stretch of walking alongside the River Thames at it's best. You can combine this route with the first route to create a longer walk if you wish, and there are plenty of lovely eateries in the town itself.

The third Henley walk (5.75 miles) is an extension of the second route that enjoys a longer stretch of walking alongside the wonderful River Thames. It takes you further along the river past the village of Remenham and it follows the river all the way around until it passes the impressive Hambleden Lock and then reaches the village of Aston. The path between Aston and Henley is then open countryside and a section through Remenham woods.

The final Henley walk (10.5 mies) is a truly fantastic and epic adventure that really explores this beautiful part of the county. The walk takes you through the pretty town of Henley-on-Thames before following the River Thames all the way up to Mill End and crossing the impressive Hambleden Lock. It then heads north into the beautiful village of Hambleden (where you'll find a great pub for refreshments!) before heading west into and through the Great Wood. Finally, the walk returns to Henley via quiet country lanes and through Henley Park's lovely open countryside. There are a lot of steep hills on this very long walk, so please go prepared with enough food, water and energy.
