🚶♂️Celebrating the anniversary of the Eton Walkway
The Eton Walkway was officially launched 10 years ago, this weekend!
The Eton Walkway offers a fascinating journey through more than 500 years of local history, heritage and culture. This week marks the anniversary of the Walkway's opening, giving residents and visitors the perfect opportunity to discover, or rediscover, Eton's hidden gems.
The 2-mile circular route takes around an hour to complete and connects 18 points of interest across the historic town of Eton, starting at Windsor Bridge. Along the way, visitors can explore landmarks including Eton College, the Herschel Observatory, Jubilee Square, the Brocas, and many more sites that tell the story of Eton's rich and diverse heritage.
Look out for the permanent bronze markers set into the ground, featuring Eton's coat of arms, originally granted by King Henry VI in 1449, which guide walkers around the route.
If you’re visiting Windsor and the Royal Borough this autumn, do ensure time in your itinerary to explore Eton.
