Kiddiwalks in Hampshire and the New Forest

by: Jane Pitman
Here is a full colour book of twenty safe walks chosen specially for children. Packed with fun things to see and do, each route offers a great day out. The routes are circular and easy to navigate and the distances between 0.75 and 4 miles.

There is plenty of variety and interest. There are walks by the sea, in the woods and up to ancient hill forts; country parks and pretty villages to explore; as well as ducks to feed, play areas to discover and streams for pooh sticks.

Each walk includes information to get to the start, distance and estimated time, terrain, and a panel listing fun things to see and do. Each walk features places for refreshments in recommended cafes or family friendly pubs, or alternatively suggestions for picnic places are given. There are sketch maps to support the route finding instructions which are given in numbered paragraphs corresponding to numbers on the map. Ordnance Survey map references are also provided.
