Places to Visit

View Island

Take a trip to this peaceful, relaxing island. This lovely park area features a natural open space and grassy paths. Take a seat near the weir at Caversham Lock or spot the several wooden, chainsaw-carved sculptures dotted around. The island also contains an education area and a canoe pontoon.

PLEASE NOTE: Keep a close eye on children, as the island has steep banks and dangerous river currents.
