チルクームのおすすめツーリングルート

鹿に注意してください。頂上付近で、若い鹿2頭がこちらに向かって道路を走っているのを見ました。近づいてくると生垣を飛び越えていきました。

穏やかな丘と美しい景色。Arlesfordにはコーヒー休憩に最適な場所がたくさんあります。

St Catherine's Hill is a prominent chalk downland hill on the outskirts of Winchester, notable for its layered historical and ecological importance. Now a biological Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) managed as a nature reserve, its summit is ringed by the impressive earthworks of a univallate Iron Age hillfort dating back over 2,000 years. The top is marked by a distinctive copse of beech trees, known as 'The Clump', which contains the scant ruins of the 12th-century St Catherine's Chapel, while the hillside features a turf-cut labyrinth known as the Miz-Maze; the entire site provides spectacular views over the city, the Itchen Valley, and supports a rich variety of wildflowers and butterflies, including the protected Chalkhill Blue.

Winchester Cathedral in southern England is an impressive building steeped in history. Its Gothic architecture and intricate details make a visit a fascinating experience. Particularly impressive are the high vaults and the historic artworks that adorn the church. The interior exudes a serene and dignified atmosphere, inviting you to linger. The cathedral is a significant cultural and religious center, reflecting both history and spirituality. Overall, it is a worthwhile destination for visitors interested in architecture, history, and art.

Stunning views cross the lake to the "big house",

Had a great sandwich and enjoyed watching the prep for the Battle of Cheriton re-enactment.

Bike racks, big garden and appreciate cyclists coming in for a refreshing real ale or two!

A really nice varied route. The fast majority of it is really wide too. Very quiet on an overcast autumn week day.
