11 miles East Meon and Butser Hill

A vigorous walk with splendid views - weather permitting!

We start by walking through the picturesque village of East Meon before testing our lungs climbing the hill above the village church. Following round the contour line of Park Hill, we skirt Barrow Hill before beginning our ascent of Butser Hill. After catching our breath, admiring the views and eating lunch, we begin our return journey following the South Downs Way. We keep to the high ground past Tegdown Hill, Hayden Hill, Wether Down and Salt Hill before descending to our start point.

This is a relatively short “long” walk but with two steep demanding climbs.
