Just beyond the town’s borders, Chilterns AONB offers a trip into nature with wooded valleys, ancient trails, and riverside campsites for tents and caravans. To the southeast, Windsor Great Park sprawls across avenues and boasts a royal legacy. Stay near the king and queen at pet-friendly campsites in the area.

Where to go

Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty

Dive into a haven of biodiversity and serenity in the Chiltern Hills. Cycle Chilterns Cycleway or wander walking paths through beech woodlands and ancient pathways to experience this AONB’s panoramic views of its rare landscape made up of dramatic chalk escarpment. Nature enthusiasts can also look forward to spotting red kites circling overhead as well as rare species like the glow-worm. For a hike into the past, explore Ridgeway—an ancient track that snakes through the Chilterns. Nearby riverside campsites on the Thames cater to tents and caravans, boasting amenities such as electrical hookups, sanitary facilities, and wifi access as well as caravan holiday home rentals.
