Overview

We leave the car park and walk up to the SDW over Small Down. We follow the SDW for several miles to Butser Hill, then descend to the north, making our way back to East Meon via Sir William's Hill and Park Hill.

This is a hilly walk.

The mid-morning stop will be at the Sustainability Centre and the lunch stop at Butser Hill.  Both stops have a cafe.  I'm spoiling you on this one. 

Please book with the leader.
