Overview

This walk starts from Fareham Leisure Centre and explores some of Fareham's diverse footpaths through The Gillies, Fort Fareham, Fareham Creek and Town Quay to Fareham Rec, where we will take a short break. We will make our return via Wallington Shore and the back streets to  Fareham Leisure Centre. The walk will be pretty much mud free, but we will be walking across some grassy areas and wooded paths.

There is an optional lunch stop at Coco's Coffee shop for anyone who wishes to stay on. Please contact the leader if interested.
