Help connect Locks Heath

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 Locks Heath’s Slow Ways.

This is a lovely route that takes in the hamlet of Hook and Chilling Common, then the beach through to Meon and Stubbington beyond. Very nice cafe at the Meon bird reserve plus often a coffee van. Water tap on the beach side of the toilet block at Meon shore....

The route starts at Bursledon Station and there is no footpath alongside access road which is quite busy. But its a busy A road and not a comfortable resting point. And we turn in all too early onto another narrow well used road with no footpath....
