Overview

This will be an exhilarating walk in the Hampshire countryside, walking along rural lanes, across farmlands and through woodlands.  We will hopefully be enjoying an early spring as we explore the areas around Medstead, Bighton, Upper Wield and Hattingley.  Sadly we will be too early for wine!
