We are the Alton Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
We will be walking through part of Home Farm Woodland Trust where trees should be in autumn colour before joining the path leading mainly alongside farmland down to the village of Bradley, entering the village via the churchyard. We then pick up the Three Castles Way and follow it towards Lower Wield, crossing farmland and winding through small copses. From Lower Wield we cross several fields before turning onto the first of two intersecting byways. The landscape is open and undulating with wide views across rural Hampshire.
The terrain is mainly level with some very gentle ascents and descents. There is some soft ground in the Woodland Trust enclosure, and mud on the final stretch. Only one stile.
Alton Sports Centre lower car park, adjacent to skate park.
Home Farm is 1km (0.5 miles) south of Burkham and, 3km (2 miles) north-west of the village of Bentworth, just west of the A339 Basingstoke Road. The car park is on Burkham Lane and can be approached from either direction: Bentworth or Burkham.
