Easy walks for the whole family
Hampshire Surrey West Sussex
Street Croft Farm
Street Croft Farm, south of Basingstoke, is a working farm with farm shop, café, animals and children’s games. If you want to make your day in the countryside even better, you can follow our linear walk to Herriard Green, a beautiful park with paths mown through wildflower meadows and a very good play area
Sutton Scotney
There are quite a few parks on our website, but this one is really special. It has ample parking, a brilliant play area, a little section of riverside boardwalk and best of all, a place where children can safely access the shallow water of the River Dever via steps and a small pontoon.
Hawkley
Hawkley is an attractive South Downs village with a pretty village green, church, recreation ground and pub. Our short and easy family walk takes in just one small section of the Hangers Way, but it is a particularly special one, with banks of wild garlic in spring and rolling countryside views.
Ackender Wood
Ackender Wood is just on the edge of Alton and in April and May, it comes alive with carpets and carpets of bluebells. Our walk actually starts from neighbouring Bushy Leaze Wood, which allows for the bluebells to build up to a mid-point crescendo!
West Meon
What a joy this walk was on a sunny spring day! The paths were lined with a multitude of spring flowers and the woodland carpeted with bluebells. West Meon itself is an attractive village with a traditional stores and well-loved pub. To complete the excursion, children will be excited by the new climbing towers and slides in the recreation ground, from where the walk starts.
Cheriton to Holden Farm
Cheriton has featured in some of our walks before. We keep being drawn back to the clear waters of the Itchen, the pretty thatched cottages, the hidden park and the plethora of footpaths. This time, we walked over peaceful lanes and fields to Holden Farm, where just off the South Downs Way, you will find the perfect setting for enjoying refreshments.
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.
