What is Thames Chase?



Creating and Improving Access

Access within Thames Chase is crucial for local people to fully enjoy all the benefits. There are over 90km (56miles) of paths on the 47 sites currently open to public access (see Out and About for more details of these sites). Over 50km of these paths have been created since 1990 alone. Additionally, we are seeking to connect existing and new sites with "greenways" – off-road routes for pedestrians, cyclists, horse riders and those with disabilities.
