This is a similar walk to the Book 2 Walk 6 Henley Circular (via Stonor and Pishill) walk. It’s a bit longer and (the main walk) a fair bit flatter but both go along one side of a valley in open countryside on the opening leg and return to Henley on the other side in the afternoon, often through attractive woodland. This walk, however, also finishes with a lovely, peaceful Thames path back to Henley. However, this walk covers completely different territory to the Book 2 favourite visiting villages and countryside not incorporated in other SWC Henley and Chilterns walks in the area.
The longer version loops through Stonor (Deer) Park, the decision point is after 12.7 km.
Note: apart from being a very nice walk in a very scenic part of the Southeast, there is also a Midsomer Murders theme to this walk, details of which you’ll find on the webpage or in the pdf.

6 off the train on a w=sunny-day-with-some-clouds.
A walk with fine views, plenty of daisies and buttercups, as well as some poppies; geese and goslings, sheep and lambs, kites and plenty of birdsong, some dreamy valleys, atmospheric woods and pretty villages. 1 walker fell behind soon after Hambleden, 3 of the rest lunched at The Frog, which was superb, and met the 2 sandwichers plus a late starter outside. 2 of those then walked an unofficial shortcut, while 2 each of the others walked main walk and long walk each.
For my subgroup it was touch-and-go whether we'd make the 16.30, so we sat down outside the Chocolate Factory for a warm drink. 17.00 train therefore, 2 others on an earlier one, 2 on a later one, 1 unaccounted. n=7
