This circular 6.5 mile walk starts from a small car park off New Road, Bournemouth, and forms a Stour Valley Way loop, where the Way runs along the north of the river between Parley and Throop Weir and back along the south of the river.

A mainly flat, riverside route from Iford, including an out and back section along the Stour Valley Way, with the opportunity to see a variety of water birds. Ground may be uneven and muddy along the river bank.

A very enjoyable walk that follows the River Stour as it joins Christchurch Harbour. The route continues to the farthest point of Hengistbury Head before following along the coast towards Hengistbury Head Nature Reserve. It is at this part of the walk that has the highest point which provides an impressive view along the coast. We will then continue along the coastal path heading back to the car park. 25 spaces available. Once all places are taken, I will add people to a reserve list. To join this walk, please send me an email to include your name to neilswalks@gmx.com
