Extracts from the Ordnance Survey Landranger series of maps, at a scale of 1:50,000, are used throughout this guidebook, with overlays showing the routes. However, these maps do not give the same level of detail and clarity as that found on the Ordnance Survey Explorer series, at a scale of 1:25,000 – for example, the location of a path in relation to field boundaries. For this reason walkers may find the larger scale mapping of value on some of the routes. Details of the relevant maps are given with each route description. The Explorer maps that cover the walks in this guidebook are:
•    Explorer 157 Marlborough and Savernake Forest
•    Explorer 158 Newbury and Hungerford
•    Explorer 159 Reading, Wokingham and Pangbourne
•    Explorer 170 Abingdon, Wantage and Vale of White Horse
•    Explorer 171 Chiltern Hills West, Henley-on-Thames and Wallingford
•    Explorer 172 Chiltern Hills East, High Wycombe, Maidenhead and Rickmansworth
•    Explorer 180 Oxford, Witney and Woodstock
