Sightseeing
Windsor Castle itself is just over 2 miles away and the majority of the route from Benet House includes an off road cycle path alongside Albert Road (A308). It offers a huge amount of history and spectacular views both of the castle and from the castle. It is the oldest and largest inhabited castle in the world. It has been the family home of British kings and queens for almost 1,000 years, and is currently the main home of the Queen and Prince Philip, and within the grounds The Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

Charles II was responsible for the original planting of the Long Walk. This historic walk is an easy terrain stroll that takes you between Windsor Castle and The Copper Horse, (and on into Windsor Great Park if you want to keep on going). From the Castle Gates to the Copper Horse is exactly 2.5 miles. Children’s scooters are allowed but no cycle bikes although you are allowed to cycle throughout the rest of the Park.
