Guidebook to Hampshire and the New Forest Pub Walks

author: Ruth Paley
Discover Hampshire's beautiful countryside with this pocket-sized guide to some of the best walks in the county. There are 20 circular routes here, varying in length from 2½ to 6 miles. At the heart of every walk is a renowned local pub, all of which have been recommended for their good food and warm welcome.

Explore the rolling chalk hills of the South Downs National Park at Buriton and East Meon, the coastal mudflats at Lymington, the Solent shore at Portsmouth, and quintessential New Forest heathland at Fritham, Burley and Rhinefield.

Along the way you'll uncover the best of the Hampshire countryside, including crystal-clear chalk streams, peaceful woodland and picturesque villages with duck ponds, ancient churches and thatched cottages. Each walk entry includes practical information, a summary of the walk, detailed navigation instructions, a coloured sketch map and colour photographs.
