Overview

This walk takes in parts of The Wayfarers' Way, Meon Valley Trail and The Allen King Way.  After a short climb at the start, it is a relatively easy walk over farmland, woodland and along bridleways.  There are a few inclines and several stiles.  There will be a small amount of road walking although not too busy.

Please contact the leader as we may leave early if all expected are present
