These walks start in the pretty village of Northmoor and offer a relaxed countryside outing with plenty of riverside scenery along the River Thames.

You’ll pass through open farmland and enjoy long, easy stretches beside the water, with traditional village views along the way.

Whether you choose the shorter pub walk or the longer route with extra riverside miles and an additional stop en route, these walks finish back in Northmoor where a welcoming pub provides the perfect end to the day.

This is a lovely Pub Walk from the pretty village of Northmoor.

You can expect some open countryside as you head out of the village into farmland and then a nice long amble alongside the River Thames before heading back to the village.

There is then a lovely pub waiting for you in the village if you are in need of post-walk refreshments.

Lovely walk especially the part along the Thames.We took our dog but have to be aware of livestock on route .

Walker review

On a nice sunny day, especially if you go early, this is a beautiful walk. Plenty of wildlife too. I thoroughly recommend it.

Walker review

Very pretty stretch of the Thames. Northmoor church well worth a visit - open daily.

This second route option is the choice for you if you want some extra mileage in your walk, a much longer stretch of walking alongside the majestic River Thames and two lovely pubs on the route.

The second pub is a wonderful riverside venue about half way around the walk.
