Riverside Park in Southampton marks the point where the Itchen Navigation reaches a tidal estuary on its way to the sea. Flat, surfaced paths guide you along the river where you will find play areas and even a miniature railway along the way.

The play trail may only be a mile long, but expect it to take you a couple of hours to walk, for along the way are nine incredible wooden play structures that will enchant children of all ages. Moors Valley Country Park is right on the Hampshire/Dorset border and is host to an exceptional amount of forest attractions, most of which are free.

Royal Victoria is a country park with something for everyone from woodland to shoreline to parkland. Throughout this landscape you will find historical buildings, play areas and a miniature trainline. The whole park is flat and has marked trails, making it easy to explore.

This walk takes in both the heathland and the woodland of the the New Forest as well as wildlife rich marshland and pools.

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.
