For hiking and cycling along the River Thames or in the nearby Cotswolds, late spring (May to June) and summer (July to August) are ideal due to the pleasant temperatures and longer days. Be prepared for rain in autumn (September to November), which can make trails muddy but is still suitable for more adventurous outdoor activities; just keep an eye on the weather forecast. For comfortable accommodation, consider hotels in Reading to relax after a day of exploring.
