Overview

This is a circular walk around Cheriton, Bramdean and Hinton Ampner. The walk starts by finding the source of the River Itchen then we follow the Itchen Way through Cheriton, then jump onto the Wayfarer's Way all the way up to the top of Cheriton Wood where we will stop for a quick coffee and take in the views. Then it is back down the valley to Bramdean for a picnic stop at the church and if we are lucky there should be a lovely display of Snowdrops. After our picnic we go through the Hinton Ampner Estate and past Hinton Ampner House.

Please bring refreshments for one coffee stop and picnic lunch at convenient location.
