About Curious About Windsor
Curious About Windsor gives an novel insight into what makes this regal town what it is.
Whether a resident or visiting for the first time, you're guaranteed to spot things you wouldn't have noticed before! Enjoy the two walks separately, or put them together for a longer walk, depending upon available time, energy and how many of our suggested diversions for things to see and do on the way tempt you! Walks typically take 1 to 2 hours each.
1. Home Park to Windsor Castle - 1.5 miles / 1.5 hours / wheelchair and buggy friendly (small diversion may be necessary)
This route is a perfect mix of new and old, magnificent and unusual. From the endless Home Park to a small, yet delightful play park. Take a taste of the shopping district, before circling round some little known walkways. Take in the 17th century Guildhall and the ancient parish church, before exploring a number of small and quirky streets, to end at the castle which dominates the town.
2. Castle to River Thames - 1 mile / 1 hour, wheelchair and buggy friendly (small diversion may be necessary)
From the imposing Windsor Castle you quickly enter a world of locomotives and shops, before dropping down to some bustling riverside gardens which date back over a hundred years. Past the Royal Windsor maze, and Theatre Royal, you quickly reach the leisurely River Thames. Here you can cross over into Eton, famous for its public school, or simply stop and watch the world go by.
