Overview

Our walk will take us from Eaststoke Corner, keeping close to the waterfront down to The Ferryboat Inn at the western end of Hayling.  We'll then return via the shoreline to our starting point.  There are no stiles on this route.  Some walking through gorse bushes/woodland and about 500 metres of road walking along a narrow lane.  The walk will also entail walking on areas of shingle/pebbles on the return leg.
