Overview

Bluebell Walk: Teg Down and Crabwood

Wednesday  April 24th   10.30 :     

Crab Wood (near Sparsholt, Winchester) is a well loved nature reserve and beauty spot with a mass of bluebells. Hopefully the bluebells will still be out!

This is a circular walk, with some up and down, not for those who cannot walk up a hill,  on clear but uneven paths through woods and across farmland,  some muddy sections at present, one longish stretch  on quiet road, no stiles. Some good long distance views.
