베글리 우드 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

강과 운하가 국토를 가로지르며, 특히 후자는 옛날에는 교통 인프라의 매우 중요한 부분이었습니다. 나중에 먼저 철도가, 그리고 더 나중에 트럭이 화물 운송의 임무를 맡았습니다. 다양한 교통수단 간의 경쟁에서 그들은 바지선에 비해 빠르고 저렴했으며 – 따라서 더 효율적이었습니다. 그러나 인공 수로 건설 시에는 항상 높이 차이를 극복해야 한다는 점을 고려해야 했으며, 따라서 운하를 따라 – 현장 상황에 따라 더 많거나 적은 간격으로 – 종종 수문이 늘어섭니다. 그들의 도움으로만 항해가 가능했습니다.

A wonderful running route along the canal with pretty houseboats, there is almost always rowing on the canal 😃

This small reserve is full of rare flowers and provides quaint views over the river

Beware on the cyclepath alongside the canal. You meet quite big groups of pedestrians, and dog walkers too. Some aren't very pleased to share with cyclists, so be friendly.

Great range of pastries and baked goods (with really good vegan options also) and has really good coffee. Worth going out of the way to go here. Also has places to lock your bike up if you have to :)

This pretty stream branches from the River Thames and winds past Iffley Meadows. It's often lined with picturesque canal boats and is surrounded by plenty of walking paths.

Lots of mushrooms and fungi in this area.

Sandford on Thames dates back further than the Domesday Book of 1086. The name reflects the ford and crossing point of the river. The river meadows have also made farming rich in the area. Today it's a pretty village with a good pub by the river.
