Generally quiet lanes around this area with sandy paths to jump on and off.

Frensham Little Pond is more tranquil and offers a greater variety of walks and scenery than its nearby neighbour the Frensham Great Pond. Although the circular walk around the Little Pond can become a little busy at weekends there are plenty of other quieter paths to explore!

A great viewpoint of Farnham from above is from the Keep at the Castle.

Frensham Little Pond is a glorious place to hike. It is surrounded by pine trees and sandy hills so makes the perfect location for a longer jaunt taking in the local area or a hike round the pond is under 3km so is perfect for families with children or for a shorter, largely flat, hike. There is some sand and it can be quite rooty by the car park. There as been a lake here since the 13th century when the Bishop of Winchester decreed a dam be built. The resulting pond provided fish for when he was staying at nearby Farnham Castle.

Thousands of motorists drive underneath this aqueduct on the A331 without having any idea at all that a canal is suspended above their heads. The canal was opened in 1995 and the waterway long pre-dates the A road beneath it. The original plan was to drop the canal down using locks, but the decision was eventually made to keep the canal level and build the road underneath, requiring the construction of the aqueduct. To enjoy this fantastic piece of engineering, walk or ride alongside the canal on the towpath as it passes on its merry way, uninterrupted by the road underneath.

Dating back to the 11th century and mentioned in the Doomsday book. The oldest visible parts of the present church are the chancel and the base of the tower, dating from the early 13th century

Accessed via the towpath on the Basingstoke Canal, which makes for a pleasant walk, if sometimes a little busy, Odiham Castle is interesting to walk around. The towpath can get a little muddy!

One of King John's three castles, this spectacular ruin sits on the edge of the Basingstoke Canal around halfway between Windsor and Winchester castles. Odiham Castle was built at the very beginning of the 13th century and was possibly where the king rode out from to sign the Magna Carta at Runnymede. Extended during the later 13th century, over the next 200 years it was sometimes used as a prison. King David II of Scotland was incarcerated here for over a decade although was allowed to keep a household, so it was possibly quite a pleasant stay. Used as a hunting lodge in the 15th century and ruined by 1600, the castle has a significant history. Today, you can visit for free.
