A nice town before going to Windsor!

Tip by

Windsor Castle is the oldest and largest occupied castle in the world - it's home to The King and over 900 years of royal history.
Founded by William the Conqueror in the 11th century, it has since been the home of 39 monarchs.

The Castle itself is at the top of a steep hill, but it's visible from the road so you can get a sneaky peak as you roll past on the bike!

View of the Jubilee River

Highlight • River

The track on the south side of the Jubilee River from Slough towards Eton is very poor with overhanging tree branches & rutted path etc. The track on the north side, accessed when you cross at the traffic lights at Slough, is much better and wider. Access to Eton is via the wooden bridge at the end of the track.

Jubilee River Weir

Highlight • River

The Jubilee River is really a flood relief scheme that has several miles of grit cycleways along it. It’s tranquil and a wildlife haven, a really beautiful escape from the busy roads nearby. Great for walking & picnics too, there are a few bridges across it too, so it’s easy to get to it. The river runs from Cookham to Eton, but the middle stretch is the only length with walking & cycle paths. Best on a hybrid bike as the cycleways are quite flinty.

Jubilee River Bridge

Highlight • Cycleway

Nice little bridge crossing over the Juiblee River just outside Slough. You can cross the river to reach the town where there is a handful of amenities.

Jubilee River

Highlight • River

One of a few bridges that cross the recently formed Jubilee River. Actually an important flood relief scheme, it is beautifully landscaped and it is possible to cycle (hybrid) for miles along the trails which line its course. It provides a perfect habitat for lots of varied wildlife. A gem!
