I decided to wander along the Oxford Canal today and saw lots of ducks, frogs and even a Grey Heron. At the beginning of the path you see a map showing you what you will see, what to look for and what animals and birds you might see. It’s a quiet path where you might encounter others enjoying their surroundings. I had a great time today, stopping a lot along the way to take some pictures and enjoy the views.

A wonderful place for a quiet walk in nature.

Amazing place to explore Pretty quiet and relaxing Be sure to get some shoes which u dont mind getting muddy

My wife and I were walking up the canal towpath yesterday and came across the Trap Grounds by accident. A fabulous wetland wildlife reserve, a little slice of heaven. Truly magical!

I love this place so much! It's great to just walk around and take in the wonderful nature.

A wonderful oasis for all the wild life you can imagine lakes marshes woodland and glades just a few minutes, walk from the centre of Oxford along site the pretty Oxford canal

Lovingly looked after area of wilderness not far from town. Signs explaining about plants growing there, small winding paths and boardwalks through the greenery and along the pond. A little gem we stumbled upon accidentally...

Wunderbar! A treasure for all ages - adjoins the Oxford canal path and links to Port Meadow via a footpath and bridge. Decent footwear desirable in all wetlands! Not entirely accessible for all pushchairs etc. but the main route is. Not large, but many exploring and learning opportunities - spot the small blackboards for seasonal interest to spot. Do support the WWT, BBOWT, RSPB and the Trap Grounds all have websites

My favourite place in Oxford!

Beautiful quiet nature reserve
