헤드본 워디 주변 최고의 가족 하이킹 & 워킹 코스

토요일 오후 1시 직전에 도착했지만 문을 닫았습니다 (:-( 이제 매우 인상적인 카미노 잉글레스 길 표지판이 있습니다. 2026년에 설치되었으며 윈체스터에서 시작하는 경우 '공식 시작점'이라고 생각합니다. 평화로운 교회 묘지에는 벤치가 있어, 계속 가기 전에 여기서 간식을 즐겼습니다. 두 번째 하이라이트를 만든 점 죄송하지만, 여기에 교회의 정확한 지점을 표시했습니다. 첫 번째는 몇 백 미터 밖에 있고 이곳 주변을 탐색하는 것은 어렵습니다 (제가 어떻게 아는지 물어보세요!)

명판(실제로는 길에서 조금 더 올라간 곳에 있음)에 따르면, 이 수도원은 알프레드 대왕과 그의 가족 구성원들의 알려진 매장지입니다! 이 수도원은 해산 전 영국에서 매우 인상적이었을 것입니다.

The Faladoon Nature Reserve is a peaceful, lesser-known area, historically associated with Winchester College, that lies alongside the internationally important River Itchen chalk stream. Located near Winchester, this reserve forms a green corridor that offers tranquil walks, including a loop that connects to the historic Hockley Railway Viaduct. The area is significant for its diverse flora and fauna typical of a managed chalk-river flood plain, providing habitat for various bird species like kingfishers and woodpeckers, and serving as a key spot for local wildlife enthusiasts and conservation groups like the Conchological Society due to the presence of rare mollusc species.

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.

The River Itchen is a globally significant chalk stream that flows for approximately 28 miles through Hampshire, from its source near Cheriton, through the city of Winchester, and into Southampton Water. Designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and a Special Area of Conservation (SAC), the river is famed for its clear, mineral-rich, and stable-temperature water, which creates a rare and highly valued habitat for species like Atlantic salmon, otters, and the white-clawed crayfish. It is renowned worldwide among anglers as one of the premier locations for fly fishing, particularly for brown trout and grayling, and features a complex network of channels, including the historic Itchen Navigation, that once supported water mills and the local watercress industry.

Stop and find a place to to take a good pic of the Church along this section. The Hospital of St Cross and Almshouse of Noble Poverty in Winchester is one of England's oldest continuing charitable institutions, founded around 1132 by Bishop Henry of Blois to provide relief for thirteen poor men and food for many others, a mission later expanded by Cardinal Henry Beaufort. Renowned for its beautiful medieval and Norman architecture, including a magnificent church described as a "cathedral in miniature," it functions today as an almshouse providing accommodation for around 25 elderly men, known as the Brothers, who wear traditional black or claret gowns. Visitors often seek the traditional Wayfarer's Dole, a small cup of beer and a piece of bread offered to any traveller upon request, continuing an ancient tradition of hospitality.

The Buttercross is a magnificent, many-pinnacled, 15th-century stone market cross located prominently on Winchester's High Street. Originally known as the City Cross, it acquired the name "Buttercross" because its five octagonal steps and surrounding area were traditionally used by country people to sell dairy products, eggs, and other produce. The highly decorative Gothic structure features a tall central shaft, numerous smaller pinnacles, and twelve figures, including the Blessed Virgin, various saints, King Alfred the Great, and William of Wykeham (though many of the statues were added during an 1865 restoration by Sir George Gilbert Scott). The monument is also famous for a local "small riot" in 1770, when the citizens successfully prevented a local squire from dismantling and moving the historic cross to his private estate.
