Chawton Woods is a beautiful woodland area, near to the village of Chawton, the former home of Jane Austen. The woods are situated within close proximity to Jane Austen's House Museum.

Part of National Cycle Network route 224, a fantastic well-surfaced gravel track runs through the woods linking the Hampshire villages of Chawton and Four Marks.

This is just the most delightful stretch of gravel! Goes through the forest and is bone dry even when the rest of England is under water (April 2024).
