This is a lovely nature park situated just outside the city of Oxford. A boardwalk leads you around the park, allowing you to immerse yourself in nature and get up close to the varying wildlife species.

I got here a bit late and darkness was fast approaching but what a beautiful walk through the nature trail. Easily reached from the Thames to make a longish circular loop.
