This hike is based mainly within the Royal Windsor Great Park and is a gorgeous hike with some history too plus we get to admire Windsor Castle - the largest inhabited castle in the world dating back nearly 1000 years. We explore the King's park surrounding castle and its stunning 5,000 acres - home to more than 500 deer, some stunning lakes and picture postcard flower gardens.
Highlights
• Pass the mighty and ancient Windsor Castle
• Explore the exquisite Windsor Great Park home to magnificent ponds, lakes and a deer park
• Discover the spectacular 17th century architecture of Cumberland Lodge
• See the picturesque Virginia Waters Lake - designed to serve as a royal pleasure ground
• Experience the iconic views of “the Long Walk” towards Windsor Castle, where the funeral procession carriage entered Windsor Castle
We hike along one of the most well known images of the royal grounds - the iconic view down the tree lined Long Walk towards Windsor Castle. Add to this sweeping deer lawns, ancient oak trees, far reaching hill views, tranquil rivers, several lakes and ponds and of course the enchanting Valley Gardens.
This is a hike we only run in April or May - either month can be great for seeing Spring in and the flowers emerging, depending on whether the winter is mild or cold, this winter was unusually mild so we have chosen April
Please note, this is less rural than our usual hikes and is based entirely within a landscaped Royal Park, sometimes on tarmac tracks.
