We are the Guildford Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

A pleasant, varied walk starting from the village of Chawton. A bit further afield but easy to get to. We'll walk through open fields, farmland, wooded areas and along the now dismantled Meon Valley railway. The walk will take us through the pretty village of Upper Farringdon with its old church, 3,000 year-old Yew tree and Massey's Folley. We then head back to the start through part of the Chawton estate. There will be a refreshment break at some point.

There are some steepish steps down to and up from the A32 which we'll need to cross. Other than that, a few ups and downs but mostly flat. Some minor road walking, two stiles to cross and possibly mud in places depending on the weather at the time. There may be livestock in some of the fields, in which case dogs must be on leads. Pub and cafe very near the end point and plenty of places for those wishing to picnic.
Meet in the Chawton village car-park. Parking here or along the road towards Chawton House. From Guildford, take the Hog's Back, Farnham Bypass, A31 Alton Road and then the 1st exit at the Chawton roundabout (ie into Winchester Road) which leads straight to the village and the car-park.
