River Hamble Country Park
The walk may only be forty-five minutes, but you will spend a whole day here as there is so much to do in this riverside country park that even has its own farm!
Liss Riverside Walk
For this walk, we gave the legs a rest and took our bikes and scooters as the old railway line beside the River Rother is flat and even making is suitable for wheels as well as feet.
Chilbolton Cow Common
The River Test gently flows through Chilbolton Cow Common with a wide, shallow ford. There are some excellent riverside pubs in the area, making this an ideal weekend walk.
Thursley & Hankley Common
There is plenty of variation on this walk from pine woodland to open heathland. The pretty village of Thursley makes a good resting point halfway with its pub and park.
Eastleigh Lakeside Country Park
A walk and a ride on a train! This little country park on the edge of Eastleigh has a circular walk passing ponds, a steam train, a play area, a nature reserve and an amphitheatre.
Priory Farm
An entrance fee is required to enjoy The Discovery Trail at Priory Farm near Redhill, but it is worth every penny to experience this nature walk set in woodland and meadows with play structures and other surprise around every corner.
