ハンブルドンの絶景の山頂・トップ6

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.

There are two hills with the name Beacon Hill on the South Downs Way. This one is 201m, trig pointed, and closer to Winchester. It has a cool old style beacon on the top.

Nice clear track underfoot, but does get muddy after rain. Only suitable for trail shoes.

Take the South Downs Way through the Meon Valley to enjoy some butterfly-spotting on this hilltop nature reserve as well as taking in some magnificent views and enjoying a good stroll or run.

Easy to spot trig point in an open position with stunning views across the Meon Valley and the Solent.

One of the beacons built to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee in 2002. Great views over the valley below, and a leg testing climb to it.

Beacon Hill is a national nature reserve on a chalk spur that supports some rare plant life. This flora in turn provides a habitat to many species of butterfly. In fact, 25 species are known to breed on the site. The reserve affords stunning views over the Hampshire Basin and the South Downs.

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