Great options for taking different routes downhill

Very overgrown during summer but can it is doable

An example of a late bronze age to early iron age univallate hill fort. Some of the ramparts and ditches have been infilled but what remains is clear. You will have to ride up or push up a section of off road trail to view this properly.

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!

I stopped at that tree, there was something very mystical about it, and the woods around it ✨

Make sure you follow the right hand single-track to Winchester. The single-track straight ahead also leads to the road to Winchester (turn right when you meet the road), but is seriously overgrown with brambles and nettles

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.

Long and fast descent, lookout for walkers and runners!
