Head south from Harting down to join bridle path heading South down to Centurion way and thence to Chichester railway station, 11 miles. Mainly a descent, Just one climb and then the joy of the recently upgraded cycle path the last 5 miles to Chichester. Winchester railway station to Chichester railway station 44 miles.

This was on the last leg of the King Alfred’s Way for me and was one of the few descents in the whole trip i walked, dry conditions but on a loaded gravel - the descent was more treacherous than i was prepared to risk / but amazing views from the top and a fast through the fields ride from the bottom.

A lovely little hill that is on the South Downs Way. Beautiful views of the surrounding countryside can be had from here.

This is a beautiful Iron Age hill fort that is now a national nature reserve, and it is a great area to bring the family to enjoy the beautiful views from the top. It has come a long way from being a mortar testing range for the British Army back in WW2.

Trig points within the Old Winchester Hill fort.

Worth the slippery, chalky muddy ascent from Mile End lane - looking forward to repeating the route in summer with less mud!

Plate by the trig point on top of Old Winchester Hill

One of my favourite places, full of magic. It can be pretty windy but that usually makes for interesting fast moving clouds. Make sure to bring a coat and a picnic!
