Home : Local Walks : - Islip Wander
Quite a gentle walk just to the north-east of
Oxford, starting from the historical village of
Islip (which also happens to be the birthplace of
Edward the Confessor and – more recently –
hosted Channel 4's Time Team!) It's possible to
explore Ot Moor, an area of wetland which
provides a habitat for many rare species of birds
and butterflies, before returning to Oxford via
Headington.
