Large historic public park in the heart of Southampton, covering about 365 acres of open grassland, woodland, and ornamental lakes. Originally medieval grazing land, it became a formal public space in the 19th century and remains a vital green area for the city. The Common is home to a wide range of wildlife, including birds and bats, and contains notable features such as the Cemetery Lake, the Ornamental Lake, the Old Cemetery, and the Cenotaph war memorial. It’s a popular venue for community events, festivals, concerts, and sports, and offers extensive paths for walking, running, and cycling. Today, Southampton Common is valued as both a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and a much-loved urban park, providing a mix of recreation, history, and natural beauty in the centre of the city.

A long, straight, old roman road with towering trees either side.

Lordswood is a fantastic spot for a stroll or dog walk. It features a wide variety of walking trails to get lost in, dense trees, and an abundance of wildlife, including a diversity of beautiful bird species.

Combining Lee Lane with Toot Hill gives a nice route from Eastleigh to the New Forest

Great track with a lot of lines to choose from. Not worth coming in the winter as it’s too muddy.

Best going west to east as the climb is longer. It's not a particularly nice descent as the surface isn't great but it's as close as you'll get to a proper hill around Southampton that isn't in the South Downs

Probably the nicest way in and out of Southampton, quiet and really pretty

The largest park in the city with lakes and big open greens
