Overview

Look out for spring flowers and wildlife on this varied walk from the free car park at Colt Hill, Odiham.
The walk includes 2 sections of the Basingstoke Canal towpath and we return to Odiham via Butter Wood. We will also walk through Greywell Moors Nature reserve which is managed by the Hampshire Wildlife Trust. Here, if we're lucky, we may hear or even see a cuckoo!
