Enjoy a country cycle with unique views of Windsor Castle from this Royal estate
Outside Windsor Town is a unique place where I enjoy one of my favourite rides out of London. We bring the bikes to you for this wonderful cycle of Windsor Great Park, where Queen Elizabeth enjoyed horse riding when at Windsor Castle.
This 13th Century Royal Park is 20km2 and for many centuries was the private hunting ground of Windsor Castle. This is a safe country cycle ride protected from outside busy traffic where I can show you my favourite spots in this unique location.
See Windsor Castle in the distance ( we can walk to the famous Long Walk in 20 minutes if you wish -cycling is prohibited now)
Enjoy cycling past the Royal Polo fields, village cricket field, school, and houses + the Queen's statue.
Stop at the Fox and Hounds country pub at Englefield Green, here we can enjoy a drink or lunch before our return to Rangers Gate Car park.
Added cycle into Windsor and see Eton Colleges (please ask for cost and details -outside the park road cycling experience is required. )

A Recent Review of this tour
Read More Reviews For This TourMy 21 year old son and I , had a wonderful, breathtaking ride through the park this afternoon with Ginette. She was on time, communicative and has a great personality. Would certainly recommend if you like to be on a bike and love to be in a park ! IT was a nice compliment to our tour of the Castle.
