We are the Romsey Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
A walk combining a number of river crossings with views from higher ground of the Anton Valley and its surroundings. The route crosses open farmland and passes through narrower, enclosed woodland paths. We start in the midst of the West Down Nature Reserve and drop down the hill for a short section of the Test Way before heading off to open farmland. From the northern most point, we head south-east towards Wherwell and the delightful Chilbottom Cow Common. There are no stiles on this walk but it does have a couple of inclines, one of which is quite steep.
If you are intending to go on the walk, please inform the walk contact beforehand.
Romsey Rapids rear car park, adjacent to the Romsey Town FC pitch fence, for possible car-share. Please contact the walk leader if you require a lift.
West Down Nature Reserve upper car park. If travelling north on the A3057 from Romsey, turn right on the sharp bend at Fullerton towards Chilbolton. Continue towards Chilbolton and turn right after the 20 mph speed limit signs, signposted to West Down Nature Reserve car park.
