The Test Way, St Mary Bourne to Longparish
The Test Way, St Mary Bourne to Longparish Distance: 5.5 miles Start: St Mary Bourne A 44 mile long-distance walking route takes you from its dramatic start, high on the chalk downs at Inkpen, to follow much of the course of the River Test to Eling where its tidal waters flow into Southampton Water. This is without doubt Hampshire's longest and finest chalk stream, world famous for its superb trout fishing The way has been divided into 8 sections, each providing a really good day-out. Choose between water meadows or tidal marshes, riverbank picnics or cosy pubs, steep hills with exhilarating views or cool peaceful woodland. The route passes through some of the most picturesque villages in Hampshire, strewn with listed buildings, historic churches and houses. It is well sign posted and waymarked. Horse-riders and cyclists can also use some parts. Directions Over the river, you can walk the farm tracks crossing one of the great prehistoric roads, the Harrow Way. Pass through more farmland and around the beautiful eastern edge of Harewood Forest, a remnant of ancient coppiced woodland. You will then come to Longparish with its many listed buildings, including the early 13th century church of St Nicholas. The path brings you straight to The Plough pub garden.

Get out and Walk a Visitors’ Guide to Exploring Test Valley
Get out and walk A visitors’ guide to exploring Test Valley Produced by Test Valley Borough Council in association with Hampshire County Council Countryside Service and the Hampshire Ramblers. 2 Test Valley is fortunate not only to have the longest river in Hampshire, beautiful countryside, a host of charming villages but also 500 miles of rights of way and fantastic open spaces to explore. Danebury Hillfort is owned by Hampshire County Council and Chilbolton Common by the Parish Council. Stockbridge Down, Stockbridge Marsh, Plaitford Common and Mottisfont House are owned by the National Trust. Broughton Down, a local nature reserve and Harewood Forest add ecological and historical Stcid Dw fascination and should not be missed. Msf H Danebury Hillfort 3 Whether you are visiting Test Valley, or already live here, this guide will help you make the most of the countless opportunities to explore the area on foot. It will also point you in the direction for many other walks. DID YOU KNOW Test Valley has more Iron Age Hillforts than anywhere else in Hampshire? Scan the horizon from the vantage of Danebury Hill. On a clear day, it is said you can see at least 5 other hillforts, including Bury Hill to the north, Quarley in the west and Woolbury on Stockbridge Down to the east. All of these fascinating places are accessible to you. Imagine what it may have been like thousands of years ago when Test Valley was a very different place. Its two Roman roads, The Icknield Way and Portway, cast striking lines on the map and are traced in today’s landscape by footpaths, hedgelines and banks.

Inkpen Beacon and Hampshire Villages Combe Gibbet, Walbury
point your feet on a new path Inkpen Beacon and Hampshire Villages Combe Gibbet, Walbury Hill, Faccombe, Linkenholt Distance: 16½ km=10½ miles easy walking Region: Berkshire, Hampshire, Wiltshire Date written: 16-jul-2015 Author: MacMeadow Last update: 4-jun-2021 Refreshments: Faccombe Maps: Explorer 158 (Newbury) and 131 (Andover) but the map in this guide should be sufficient Problems, changes? We depend on your feedback: [email protected] Public rights are restricted to printing, copying or distributing this document exactly as seen here, complete and without any cutting or editing. See Principles on main webpage. High hills, views!!, villages, woodland In Brief This walk takes you from the highest of the Berkshire Downs gently down into the valley to visit three Hampshire villages of great character before returning to the heights with glorious views. If you don’t know this area, you will find the views of the countryside quite unforgettable, with its little hills and so many green glades and woods, so that you will want to come back again. Don’t worry that the location seems a little off-the-beaten-track: that is its great virtue, making you feel “away from it all”. It greatly rewards the extra effort in getting to the starting point. The paths are all well surfaced and well marked, making walking a pleasure. For a mid-walk break with a good menu, the Jack Russell inn in Faccombe is now open again. (For enquiries, ring 01264-737315.) There are no nettles or brambles to speak of on this walk. Most people who walk the high hills wear boots, but in normal conditions trainers should be fine.
