Crookham Village
End this loop around The Basingstoke Canal with a stop at The exchequer pub. There are streams to cross, bridges to go under and some interesting WW"2 defences to investigate.
Medmerry Nature Reserve
Medmerry Nature Reserve sits to the west of Selsey and provides a haven for coastal wildlife. There are beautiful views, hundreds of birds and miles of footpaths and cycle paths. A new addition is The Periwinkle Sculpture.
Beggarwood Park
Children will want to head straight to the play area and pump track at Beggarwood Park, so it is a good job the walk is super short and easy!
Abinger Roughs
This is a linear walk that features plenty of things to keep young walkers motivated from ancient trees, a tea-room, riverside pubs with play areas, a natural woodland play area, a village playground, a paddling spot and a farm shop.
Broadwater Park & The Godalming Navigation
Broadwater Park has plenty to keep families with a play area, ducks to feed, a lake to walk around and waffles to try. But just across the road is The Godalming Navigation, which makes a walk here even more interesting as you can watch the barges traverse the locks.
Southwater Country Park
Cripplegate Lake is at the centre of Southwater Country Park near Horsham. It has a paddling beach and a Dinosaur Island adventure play area.
