The Trundle
This short and easy walk allows families to explore the ancient monument that is the Iron Age hillfort of The Trundle. At the same time you can enjoy fantastic views across the landscape as far as The English Channel and directly over Goodwood Race Course.
Warnford Snowdrops
This walk is a little different to all our others as you can only do it on four days of the year! Luckily, the carpets of snowdrops found at Warnford Park, in the Meon Valley, are well worth the wait
Old Winchester Hill
Overlooking the Meon Valley and not actually in Winchester, Old Winchester Hill is a National Nature Reserve with views across The South Downs as far as the Isle of Wight. The chalk grassland is covered in wild flowers and butterflies in summer and you stand a good chance of spotting birds of prey such as red kites.
Ashford Hangers
Ashford Hangers comprises 323 acres of wooded hillside, much of it beech trees. The views from the top are well worth the climb and this is also one of the best places to find wild garlic in Hampshire.
Slindon Estate
With over 25 miles of public rights of way, there is so much to explore at this National Trust managed estate. There are different types of woodland, shady lanes, grassland, farms and interesting remnants of the estate’s grand history.
Kingley Vale
Kingley Vale, near Chichester, is one of the UK’s original national nature reserves with some of the oldest trees in the country. It is a truly atmospheric place to walk, and as well as the grove of ancient trees, you will also find spectacular views that stretch as far as the sea.
Hartley Mauditt
‘The abandoned medieval village of Hartley Mauditt’ is how this place is mysteriously described on the ordinance survey map. As the description suggests, there is not much left of the village other than the 12th century church, a pond and some delightful countryside to explore.
Durleighmarsh to Durford Wood
At the heart of this easy walk near Petersfield is the pick-your-own farm where strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and blackberries are ripe for the picking in summer and pumpkins in autumn.
