Overview

A peaceful walk out to Thornton College through woodland, across pastureland and along the route of the old Buckingham Canal. We return along the riverbank, Thornborough Weir and the Ford. Mainly level walking but several stiles and plank bridges, and some fallen trees to navigate. Park considerately near the pub, and car share where possible.
