Car & Trailer Parking

Please park all cars and trailers in the official HWR parking areas located in the Spectator Zone and accessed via Gate A.

Parking on Remenham Lane, Remenham Church Lane and by the church causes congestion and makes it very difficult for the local community who have previously lodged official valid complaints.  Any car parking in local roads is likely to mean that we will have to pay for traffic management which will result in an increase of the regatta entry fee..

To avoid issues a one-way traffic flow (see below) has been put in place and your cooperation would be greatly appreciated.

HWR

One Way Traffic Flow

The one-way system to access Gate A is for both specatators and competitors and must be strictly adhered to from the Saturday morning prior to racing 11th June 2022 until the Sunday evening after19th June 2022

Vehicles and boat trailers must NOT enter Remenhan Lane via the junction near Henley Bridge & must follow the one way traffic flow signposted further up White Hill along Remenham Church Lane. Please make sure that your trailer driver is aware of this.
