Overview

A lovely walk around the quiet lanes and paths to the south of Medstead towards the village of Bighton and through the Bighton House Estate.

The walk is undulating in nature but overall not too challenging. There are a small number of stiles.

Stretches of the walk are likely to be a little muddy in places.

Well behaved dogs are welcome.
