Day Hike Around The Goring Gap (Berks/S Oxon), Goring Upon Thames, Berkshire
27 March 2010: Day Hike Around The Goring Gap (Berks/S Oxon)
11 mile day hike around the Goring Gap part of the Thames Valley just west of Reading including a pub lunch. Start and end point is Goring & Streatley Railway station allowing people to easy travel by train from Reading, London, Oxford and Swindon
Join us for an 11 mile day walk (figure of 8) which combines several features of the South Chilterns landscape just west of Reading including the River Thames, some traditional beech woodland and of course a couple of hills thrown in as well to make it more challenging!
The walk will commence at Goring Upon Thames, which is famous as the starting point of the historic Ridgeway long distance path and home to several celebrities including George Michael. During the morning section we will walk towards Whitchurch Upon Thames taking a high route which affords some great views of the Thames Valley. We will then return back to Goring and cross the River Thames to for lunch at the very traditional 15th century Bull at Streatley http://www.thebullatstreatley.com
After lunch we will have the obligatory hill challenge up through Larden Chase (NT) and eventually reaching some viewing points with some great views of the Goring Gap and eventually climbing back down towards Goring where there may be time for tea and cake (or another pint in one of several good pubs) before heading back.
The walk will commence at Goring & Streatley railway station at 10:40 (09:27 train from London Paddington/ 10:23 from Reading arriving at 10:36). By car Goring is 10 miles west of Reading. I can offer some lifts from Reading railway station leaving at 10:15 by contacting me in advance on [email address available to members only]
OUTeverywhere member organiser
This event has been added to the OUTeverywhere calendar by Mike E from Reading in the Berkshire area.
I'm an easy going straight acting person looking to meet people locally that either have similar interests or can inroduce me to new ones! Interest wise I tend to spend a lot of time keeping fit, especially cycling, swimming and walking. I am also into the great outdoors generally, vegetarian cooking, reading (especially crime fiction) and music (especially rock/indie/jazz/pop) .
