~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Thames Path follows England's best known river for 184 miles (294km) as it meanders from its source in the Cotswolds through several rural counties and on to the City of London. On its way the Trail passes peaceful water meadows rich in wildlife, historic towns and many lovely villages, finishing at the Thames Barrier near Greenwich.
At the Cotswold Water Park, there are well over 100 lakes, which have been created through the process of extracting gravel. The area of water is greater than the Norfolk Broads and it is only half completed. As the gravel runs out in each area the lakes are left behind, with many given over to leisure activities whilst others provide quiet areas for birds and wildlife. The countryside provides the setting for relaxation and discovery for adults and children alike - perfect for a family day out, walkers, birdwatchers, photographers and outdoor enthusiasts.
