소버튼 최고의 러닝 경로

I walked with Sarah for just over 2 miles from the carpark keeping go the pathway & then we turned back (Sarah was hungry and her knee was in some pain) . Lots of dog walkers, lots of good mornings. A shame about poop on the path and dog poo bags hung on branches or dumped by the side of the paths - what is wrong with dog owners that they can’t take it to a bin (one if provided!) . A nice walk. I’d like to do more but would prefer if it was circular so you know you’re ending when your car is parked!

The Meon Valley Trail is a ten mile (16 km) multi-user trail that follows a disused railway track through the Meon Valley. It's basically flat and suitable for most users; this means it's well-used by families and horses, so you can't race.

Gets narrow towards the northern end, watch for horses. Very dark at dusk, take lights if uncertain.

The Pilgrim's Trail in the Forest of Bere is part of a larger, 30-mile (48 km) route. It cuts through the forest in a straight line and is a particularly nice section with beautiful woodland, flowers and good paths.

Refreshing to dip you feet in after a long ride.

The Meon Valley Trail passes the spot at Droxford Station where a secret meeting took place in a carriage on a hidden siding on June 2nd 1944. It was between Winston Churchill and General Eisenhower, General Charles de Gaulle, the Canadian leader, President McKenzie King and the South African leader Jan Smuts to discuss the final preparations for D-Day. The station is no longer there and the building has been converted into a private residency but the dense woodland shows how secluded the spot must once have been. There's a small wooden bench here, making it an ideal rest or picnic spot.

The Meon River runs alongside the Meon Valley Trail. It's a clear chalk stream which rises at East Meon and flows south into the Solent. This tranquil spot lies just off the Meon Valley Trail at the foot of a set of wooden stairs. It's a perfect place for a paddle, as the water is clear and easy to access.

The Meon Valley Trail is a 10-mile (16km) multi-user, surfaced trail and a former railway line. Running between Knowle and West Meon, it explores the scenic Meon Valley, passing Butser Hill - the highest point on the South Downs Way.
