Easy walks for the whole family
Hampshire Surrey Sussex
Burbush & Holmsley Ridge
Starting at Burbush car park, you can follow a disused railway track for a flat, linear walk which could end at a tea-room, or a circular walk that ascends to Holmsley Ridge with great views before descending again to Whitten Ponds.
Stansted Park
Stansted Park stands in 1800 acres of parkland and forest with miles of footpaths and bridleways to explore. This guide gives you three family friendly walks to chose from that can all be combined with a visit to the house and other attractions.
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.
Every Ambling Path walk has a stand out feature that children will love including magnificent play areas, shallow rivers for paddling, epic country parks and ancient ruins to explore.
Covering two national parks and two national landscapes, our detailed guides have all the information you need to get the whole family out walking right away.
