Windsor Great Park has witnessed countless events throughout history, dating back to pre-Saxon times, each of which has left ... its own distinctive mark on this impressive landscape. Although it wasn’t until the 13th Century that the areas making up Windsor Great Park were properly defined, creating an incredible variety of landscapes across the 4,800 acres that have grown and been developed over time. There is a fascinating Royal heritage at Windsor Great Park that’s just waiting to be discovered. When you wander through the Great Park you’ll encounter Royal residences, formal gardens and trees that have stood for over 1,000 years - with each twisting pathway promising a journey through England’s history. From William I using the landscape as a hunting ground a thousand years ago, to the original planting of the Long Walk by Charles II, to Queen Victoria entertaining on the shores of Virginia Water - and even today our Royal connections continue to be as strong as ever under the stewardship of HRH the Duke of Edinburgh, the Ranger of Windsor Great Park. read more
