About Shotover Country Park

Shotover Country Park covers 117 hectares on the southern slopes of Shotover Hill, and is very popular with walkers, joggers, dog walkers and also bike riders. It is a Site of Special Scientific Interest because of its importance as a wildlife site, and due to its position on the hill offers great views across south Oxfordshire. There is open grassland and ancient deciduous woodland to be enjoyed, which, come spring, are carpeted with wild flowers and bluebells.
