A good spot for a bit of wild swimming. This section of the River Cherwell, just off the canal, is very calm and private. Great to cool off on those hot rides, or it's also just nice to sit by the banks and take a rest.

A fine lock and a great place to sit and watch the boats go by. The shared walking and biking path next to the lock is smooth hardpack gravel so suitable on any bike type.

A splendid village not far from both the Oxfordshire Way and the Oxford Canal, Tackley is a good base for exploring the Oxfordshire countryside. Its train station can connect you to Oxford in 10 minutes or Banbury in less than 20. At its centre is a traditional green adorned by an old oak tree and the village even has its own nature reserve and heath. The locally managed village shop is a good place to stock up on supplies, whilst the Gardiner Arms pub does great food.

The Saxon village of Kirtlington is surrounded by some lovely countryside for an afternoon amble. Nearby Kirtlington Quarry is a Site of Special Scientific Interest and has a range of trails that explore the area. Many prehistoric remains have been discovered here, from sharks' teeth and crocodilians to Jurassic mammals and even therapod dinosaurs.
