Leisure
in Stony Stratford
A walk around the town of Stony Stratford will
reveal many historical and architectural
treasures
and within a mile of the town centre...often less...
there is open countryside in several directions,
grazed by people-friendly cattle and sheep.
You can download
a copy of the Stony Stratford Walks leaflet here.
A
walk on the wildlife side, by meadow fringed
river which winds lazily through the 'Wind in
the Willows' scene of the Ouse
Valley Country Park, can be very
diverting and therapeutic.
Swan-graced, geese-gaggled and heron-haunted,
the river in summer is alive with large
dragonflies, or iridescent small electric blue
ones, and the occasional blue flash of a
kingfisher.
In
the special nature reserves, you might see the
intricate mating dance of great-crested grebes.
