바실돈 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

강과 운하가 이 땅을 가로지르는데, 이는 산업화 초기 시대에 교통 인프라의 매우 중요한 부분이었기 때문입니다. 결국 공장에서는 이전에는 알려지지 않았던 엄청난 양의 원자재를 공급받아야 했고, 완제품도 상인에게 전달되어야 했습니다. 많은 운하가 이 시대에 만들어졌습니다. 이후 철도가, 그리고 나중에는 트럭이 상품 운송을 담당하게 되었습니다. 인공 수로를 건설하고 강을 항해 가능하게 만들 때, 고도 차이를 극복해야 한다는 점을 항상 고려해야 했기 때문에, 운하와 강을 따라 상황에 따라 크고 작은 간격으로 수문이 늘어서 있습니다. 수문의 도움으로만 선박 운항이 가능했습니다.

It's good to hide away from the bustle of your busy life in this forest! - fantastically green, colourful and lush, it's a tranquil place to be. From the southern edges of it on this stretch, there are lovely views of the Hills in this area, too.

Particularly on a clear, sunny day, this is a fantastically beautiful walk. River Thames winds its way slowly towards Goring-on-Thames, but you also pass beautiful green fields with livestock grazing in them as you walk. A lovely, peaceful and tranquil walk.

What a stunning and beautiful walk this is, and practically straight out of Goring-on-Thames! First through the beautiful and peaceful Wroxhills Wood (where at the right time of the year you will come upon bluebells), but the best bit is on the descent towards Elvendon Lane: roughly where a north-to-south path crosses the track you are on, turn to the west to look down the hillside: phenomenal landscape!

The Grade I listed, National Trust-owned Basildon House is a sensational country manor house located in Berkshire, between the villages of Upper Basildon and Lower Basildon. The mansion is surrounded by glorious parkland, including an impressive rose garden, created by Lady Iliffe and recently restored

This was once the stableyard for Basildon Park and now acts as a shop, café, and museum for visitors. There's a wonderful outdoor seating area where you can fuel up on cream teas and coffees as well as sausage rolls, soups and sandwiches.
