Easy walks for the whole family
Hampshire Surrey West Sussex
Box Hill
Box Hill on the North Downs is cared for by The National Trust. The views are some of the best you will find in South East England and when you add in woodland, The River Mole, an old fort, a natural play area and a range of facilities and trails, you can see why hundreds of walkers flock here every weekend.
Riverside Park & Dapdune Wharf
The route follows the River Wey Navigation from Riverside Park Nature Reserve. You will pass Stoke Lock where you can watch the boats be lifted and lowered. At Dapdune Wharf, there is plenty of opportunity to recharge the batteries before the walk back with a tea room, boat rides, play area, exhibits and a second-hand bookshop.
Leith Hill
In May and June, the Rhododendron Wood at Leith Hill is a riot of colour and scent. Start a woodland walk here and then climb to The Tower for the best views in South-East England.
Rockford Common
At the far western edge of Hampshire is this must do walk for families with a huge sandpit to explore, a ford to paddle in and a lakeside pub with an excellent play area.
Frensham Little Pond
Frensham Little Pond is less visited than its more well known big brother, Frensham Great Pond. Unlike the latter, you cannot bathe at the little pond which means wildlife thrives in the water and surrounding woods and heath.
Witley Common
Witley Common comprises a variety of landscapes from sunny, sandy heathland to green, wooded glades. A walk here is an absolute joy for all ages, and it is made all the more enticing by the rustic wooden play features found near the start of the trail.
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.
