King Athelstan - 924 ~ 2024
Day 8: Bourne End to Windsor
Route Overview
The day begins at Bourne End, and we follow the signposted Thames Path along the river all the way, apart from a short detour in Cookham. There’s a bit of road/river walking where the river bypasses Maidenhead, but the last hour or so is quiet, ending with a wonderful view of Windsor Castle.
