Overview

We leave Wantage via the Old Mill and through Belmont and onto the route around what was the Grove Airfield to East Challow passing the refurbished Nalder and Nalder building. Then along the part of the Vale Way alongside the Wilts & Berks canal to return to Wantage. No stiles or hills.

A regular short walk from Wantage held on the third Thursday of every month. No pub stop but we aim to be back in Wantage in time for lunch. Wantage has a variety of eating places. Wantage is reachable directly by bus from Oxford, Abingdon, Didcot, and Faringdon. Vale Walk Leader  PR 07418 078044
