We are the Winchester Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

This walk takes us through Winchester to the Itchen Navigation Path, up St Catherine's Hill, down the newly restored steps and onto Compton Lock.
Through Hockley Golf Course, high path with views of St Catherine's Hill, across 5 Bridges Road, along the Viaduct and footpath to St Cross Hospital.
We walk back to Winchester along the river, passing Winchester College to return to Abbey Gardens.
Mainly along good tracks.
This is a picnic walk, please bring snacks, lunch and drinks.
Poles are advisable if used.
Please let me know if you are joining my walk, as we may leave early if all known walkers have arrived.
