Overview

This is a walk in beautiful countryside.  A gradual 2.5 mile climb takes us to the coffee stop.  After this we pass from Hampshire into Wiltshire then Berkshire and back into Hampshire.  Our picnic lunch will be taken in a village churchyard.  We join a long distance path for part of the afternoon.
