Overview

A walk combining the interest and quiet of woodland and countryside paths with the scenic beauty of the River Hamble. Starting at Holly Hill Woodland Park, we descend through the woods to the river and then take a long riverside walk to Lower Swanwick before returning to the start by way of the Woodland Park once more.  Be sure to bring your camera.
