An excellent route through beautiful Cotswold countryside (photo 2), historic villages, and Blenheim Park mostly following the Oxfordshire Way. Only access issues are gates and steps (Stonesfield Steps, photo 1) into and within Blenheim Park. Currently (July 2022) a small diversion over the Grand Bridge due to lake dredging at Blenheim, but this affords even better views of the Palace and Park!...

Walk this routeAn enjoyable walk, with quite a mixture of terrains - farmland, small sections of forest, village and town roads, and a section through the Blenheim Palace estate, from Combe Gate to Woodstock itself....

I walked first Wookid two from Kidlington to Woodstock, and then Wookid one back to Kidlington, so I'm putting the same text in both routes. Wookid One starts with a significant on-road section (A44), going south from Woodstock, and after a short path through a meadow, continues on the A4095 into Bladon, and then onto a side-road. I wouldn't recommend Wookid Two for wheels - it has stiles, kissing gates, and three flights of stairs (one by Thrupp church, and the other two on the Old Woodstock Line railway section.....

Walk this routeWe walked this route from Kidlington to Woodstock. The only muddy section was under the railway bridge at Thrupp, and I know this section can be almost impassable due to flooding in very wet weather....

Vehicle traffic is largely avoided except for the crossing of the A44 at Begbroke; the A4095 in Bladon and the A44 approach into Woodstock. The route also uses a railway level crossing on the edge of Kidlington....
