Overview

It is a hilly walk on part of the Clarendon way. The climb  is rewarded by stunning views of the Test valley and beyond. Do bring something to sit on if you want to enjoy a seat with a view at our break.

Inevitably you need to be prepared for mud and water. Most of the walk is fine but the stretch at the end was very wet recently.
