Overview

A lovely walk out of the lovely village of Ropley, Near Alresford. This is a completely different walk to the Ropley walk I did in early 2025.

The walk takes in the quiet lanes and paths on the Hampshire Downs. The walk is fairly undulating in nature but overall not too tough.

Well behaved dogs are welcome.

Start is the car park at Ropley Recreation Ground - please park in the car park up the single track lane behind the village hall and not in the village hall car park itself.

Afterwards at the Ship Inn, Bishops Sutton for those interested.
