Is anyone going on this Wednesdays walk?
yes I am planning on going
I'm intending to go too.
Fingers crossed that the rain holds off!
Also, you may leave the walk at Goring in which case you'll need to by a Day Return to that station.
AD
Suggest this walk be done clockwise for variety and to avoid wind in our faces on the higher ground after lunch.
n=9 on this walk. Weather w=fine-and-dry.
Excellent winter outing and we all did the walk anticlockwise. most ate at the Miller of Mansfield where portions of some portions were a little lacking. Pierreponts cafe has an excellent lunch menu and this cafe should perhaps get a mention as a lunch option for this walk.
After lunch the group split up but 5 of us did the lovely Thames Path route back to Pangbourne where 4 of us had delicious teas and cakes at Cafe St Louis which has been refurbished to become an up-market bar and open until 9pm or so.
