Overview

A circular walk in The Meon Valley with lovely views!

We head out of Exton on The South Downs Way to Beacon Hill and then continue via The South Downs Way and The Wayfarers Way to Betty Mundy's Bottom. From here we use woodland paths and parts of The Wayfarers Way to head to Droxford. We return to Exton using local paths and the Meon Valley trail.

Please bring a mid-morning snack and picnic lunch.

Please let the leader know if you would like to join this walk.
