Devil’s Punchbowl
Just a short hop from the A3 at Hindhead is this spectacular location. Managed by The National Trust, there is plenty to do with a café, nearby pub, picnic benches, miles of pathways and views that go on for miles.
Winchester Water Meadows
Leave plenty of time for this walk beside the River Itchen as there is a wealth of diversions on route including St Catherine’s Hill, Hockley Viaduct, Hospital of St. Cross, Wolvesey Palace and Winchester Cathedral.
Kingsley Common
Kingsley boasts a rather large and beautiful village pond that is hidden from the road. Beyond this is a sandy common dotted with gnarly oaks and coated in purple heather.
The Sculpture Park
You will need to pay an entry fee for this truly unique walk which is an incredible way to get some exercise and also get the whole family enjoying and talking about art. The sculptures are placed throughout the trails and you will find ones to suit every taste.
Crabtree Plantation
This little nature reserve packs in an awful lot. We managed to spend a few hours here last winter, and in the summer we probably could have spent even more!
Hogmoor Inclosure
If you have never spent an afternoon at this amazing park in Bordon, then you really should. It has to have one of the very best play areas in Hampshire as well as easy sandy trails to explore through woodland.
