Overview

A mixed downland and woodland hike, heading South East from Winchester to Hazeley Down following the Pilgrim's Way, Monarch's Way and Allan King Way for a gentle climb to enjoy the wide views from Cheesefoot Head.  Returning on the South Downs Way to Winchester through Chilcomb.

This is a picnic walk without facilities on the route, so please ensure you bring food and water with you.  There are some muddy stretches along the Monarch's Way so if you have a pole then you may find it helpful.

As a bonus incentive - there will be an opportunity to forage for some wild garlic leaves.
