That’s below the level where this path usually starts to flood.

This flood line is still a starting estimate. The first reports of a flooded and a passable day will calibrate it.

About this path

The Thames towpath across Port Meadow between Walton Well and Godstow. The meadow floods broadly in winter and the path can be submerged for weeks at a time when the river is high.

From people on the ground

No reports in the last 24 hours. If you’ve been down, you’d be the first.

Flood Path is advisory and not safety-critical — river readings come from public feeds with no guarantee, and conditions can change fast in heavy rain. Use your own judgement on the day.
