Hampshire Surrey West Sussex
Black Down
If you want to find what could well be the best views in The South Downs National Park, then head to The Temple of the Winds on The National Trust managed Black Down, near Haslemere. You will be able to follow easy and flat trails in the footsteps of former local resident Alfred Lord Tennyson to the highest point in the national park.
Cheriton to Hinton Ampner
This walk starts at the pretty village of Cheriton where you will find a young River Itchen, a historical battle field, a pub and a secluded play area. It then crosses fields to reach the parkland of Hinton Ampner, where you can get a good view of the historical house and its gardens.
Slindon Estate
With over 25 miles of public rights of way, there is so much to explore at this National Trust managed estate. There are different types of woodland, shady lanes, grassland, farms and interesting remnants of the estate’s grand history.
Waggoners Wells
The short walk here always seems to take us hours as the children are so busy feeding the ducks, climbing the tree trunks, splashing in the ford, making dens and enjoying what feels like one natural playground to them.
Harting Down
Harting Down is the largest area of ancient chalk downland that The National Trust cares for . Expect to find wildflowers and butterflies in summer and splendid views all year round.
Every Ambling Path walk has a stand out feature that children will love including magnificent play areas, shallow rivers for paddling, epic country parks and ancient ruins to explore.
Covering two national parks and two national landscapes, our detailed guides have all the information you need to get the whole family out walking right away.

Walk of the week.
Most days, I drive up the A3 and at this time of year the autumn colours on the wooded hillside of Queen Elizabeth Country Park always catch my eye. If you have spotted them too and want to investigate closer try this self-guided walk.
