Route Details
Dorney Lake Via Thames Path 20250715
This is a lovely circular trail starting from Dorney village in Buckinghamshire. The route makes a complete circuit around Dorney Lake, the venue for the rowing at London 2012 Olympics. The trail includes a 1.5 mile section of the Thames Path giving you chance to watch the world go by on this popular part of the river.
The route is relatively flat with no stiles and just a couple of gates. The surfaces include country lanes, pavements, gravel paths, and the towpath alongside the Thames. Parts of this towpath are narrow (so take care with children and dogs) and can be muddy, so appropriate footwear is advised.
You will be sharing the paths with cyclists and joggers and you will also pass through Dorney Common which has cattle grazing, although these cattle seem to be at ease with the passing cars, horses, cyclists and walkers. Please take extra care if out with dogs.

About the Calorie Calculator
Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.
When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.
Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
