Help connect Blackfield

Many Slow Ways have several route options. Some will be better than others, or good for different reasons.

Our goal is for each Slow Way to have at least one route that is verified and surveyed. To be verified – and get its snail badge – a route needs at least three positive reviews.

Give a hike and help get a for every one of Blackfield’s Slow Ways.

The path heads westwards to the boundary of the New Forest, bears right, and then turns right at Bell Lane. The path then heads out until a sharp right along a bridlepath, and it is mainly bridlepaths that this route follows from here on in (when not on the road). Bear left once past the large houses on the RHS and follow the paths until you come out onto Lime Kiln Lane. Follow a couple of small roads and head up to the ESSO terminal gates, and the road eventually gives way to the path on your left, keeping the quarry on your left. On the main road, bear right and follow the road past the fire station, under the railway bridge, and past the Lidl on your right. As you hit the old Bar Gate turn left, right at the mini roundabout, and follow the road until you get to Asda....

We did this walk from Blackfield to the Hythe Pier. You would have to add time to wait for the Ferry, then 15 min for the Ferry, then the walk to the train station which I have done many times and is at least 20 minutes. So to do this walk all the way from Blackfield to Central Station in Southampton will take you close to 3 hours depending on how long you have to wait for the ferry....
