Overview

This countryside walk starts in the woodlands where the bluebells will be putting on a show. For elevenses we should find a suitable log from which to admire the iconic springtime, woodland flowers.  We then make our way through arable farmland and tracks to Micheldever where the seating for a lunch stop is next to the playground swings should anyone be tempted.  Our return journey is also along field edges and back into the extensive Micheldever Wood.
