More good views of the local area.

The views were amazing, after the 800 ft climb 😆

Black Down is the highest point in the South Downs National Park at 290 m. As such it is also is classified one of the UK's Marilyns. Expect a landscape of wavy hair grass, purple heather and pine trees.

South pond is a historic and scenic pond in Midhurst, West Sussex, England. It is fed by two streams that were once the boundaries of Saxon settlements, and it forms the division between the oldest part of Midhurst and West Lavington. The pond was created in the mid-1100s by one of the medieval lords of Midhurst, who dammed the streams to make a breeding pool for fish. The pond has been used for various purposes over the centuries, such as milling, fulling, leather production, and entertainment. The pond is now a nature reserve and a popular spot for walking, fishing, and birdwatching. It is part of the South Downs National Park and has a rich biodiversity of plants and animals. The pond is also home to the South Pond Group, a voluntary community group that works to care for and improve the pond and its surroundings. The group organizes regular events, activities, and projects to engage the public and enhance the pond’s beauty and value.

A slightly long drag up here, but you will almost always be rewarded with beautiful views.

Until 2011, the A3 bottlenecked at Hindhead, going from two lanes to one. There was always traffic, air pollution was high there was a significant number of accidents. The Hindhead Tunnel was dug to allow the road to continue as a dual carriageway. You can now cycle up the old A3 to the Devil's Punchbowl. The second half is traffic free and the views at the top are beautiful at any time of the year, but especially in the autumn. Look around at the power of nature to reclaim the land.

One of the best views in the area, it is easy to see why it inspire Alfred Lord Tennyson. Also the highest point in the South Downs National Park.

Excellent hike. We had walked around here before, but this walk takes you off the main paths at times. We saw the first (native) bluebells poking their heads through and the damage done by the recent storms if anything increased the excellence of the views. One tip; the car park at the start is not big, but there is another one of similar size about 100 yds further on around the corner.
