    Tips

    September 5, 2023

    A super cool but heart thumping 220ft climb up St Catherine’s Hill’s wooden stairs reveals show-stopping views of Winchester city as well as the Itchen Valley and the downland it nestles in. At the summit are the earthworks of an Iron Age fort, buried ruins of the Norman chapel that gives the site its name, and a copse of beech trees. In the summer you’ll be able to hear the cackle of a woodpeckers, spy buzzards and kestrels. It is such a great place to run or walk to.
