🚗WinchesterStart Point

Winchester is the starting point of the South Downs Way national trail and offers superb walking in its own right — St Catherine’s Hill, the Itchen Valley and the chalk downs south of the city are beautiful and easily accessible from the city centre.

A magnificent city with world-class heritage, Winchester combines well with serious walking — the South Downs Way begins here, the Itchen Valley Path threads south-east, and the Test Way heads north. Good transport and accommodation make it a natural starting point for the trail.
