Exploring the Thames Wilderness
The River Thames is an often, undiscovered haven of stunning scenery, wonderful wildlife and brilliant natural beauty. As well as the famous stretches passing through our biggest cities and towns, there is a hidden side to the river; wild and natural, but surprisingly accessible. This unique guidebook was researched, mapped, photographed and written by Wendy and Dick on behalf of the two major Thames River conservation charities. It contains a wealth of information about more than 150 of the best places to explore the real Thames wilderness; along with 10 circular walks taking in the most attractive and interesting nature reserves and parts of the river.
Exploring the Thames Rivers and Streams
The River Thames is a beautifully rich and diverse 215-mile stretch of freshwater that so many of us enjoy walking along – for half an hour, half a day, or days on end, courtesy of the wonderful Thames Path. Explore further and you discover the Thames tributaries – the rivers and streams that flow into the Thames from miles in all directions. This natural network has an enormous catchment area, right across Southern England into the Thames Estuary. From a small source stream in Gloucestershire, across varied and historic countryside, through London and into the wide estuary entering the North Sea, the Thames and its tributaries are a plentiful area for exploration and enjoyment.
