We conclude our Itchen journey heading out of Winchester making our way towards the point in the River we left off the previous day. We will make our way through Winall Moors Nature Reserve towards Abbots Worthy. We then cross into the Itchen Valley where we will head towards our pub stop in Ovington, the Bush Inn.
After refreshment, we will complete the final stretch of the Itchen Way, passing Tichborne Park and through Cheriton village towards the source of the River Itchen just outside New Cheriton.
For those that have booked the dinner, we will then head back on ourselves to the Hinton Arms and celebrate on completing another national trail. The dinner will also be the chance to win an Easter Egg!
For those that want to join for dinner, please inform the organiser by email and pre-order your choices by Sunday 6th April. Link to the menu is here: https://hintonarms.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/food-menu.pdf
For those coming from Reading, please get the 9:11 train from Reading getting into Basingstoke at 9:30. Change here to get the 9:48 train to Winchester arriving at 10:07.
Please note for getting back from the walk, the bus from Hinton Ampner to Winchester is unfortunately not running on Easter Sunday. The only option is to catch a taxi back to Winchester. Wintax is an option, the number to book is 01962 250 250. If you are driving, you can either park in Winchester and catch a cab back to the start with everyone else, or park at the pub and catch a cab to the start.
