A hilly walk offering some wonderful views of the South Downs and the Hampshire and West Sussex coast. From the church car park next to the pond in the picturesque village of Buriton we’ll start with a long uphill walk into Appledown Copse, before continuing south on the Staunton Way, then through more woodland and farmland to the village of Compton. A short time later we’ll stop for lunch at about half-distance, carrying on northeast to Harting Downs. Before turning west on the South Downs Way, we’ll take a detour up Beacon Hill, being rewarded on a clear day with wide, sweeping views of the surrounding countryside and south coast. The last 3 miles are mostly along the South Downs Way, eventually bringing us back to Buriton and a well-earned drink in the Five Bells pub. Please bring a packed lunch, something to sit on if the ground is wet and appropriate clothing/footwear for the terrain and weather.

Join us for a social at Toby Carvery. The table is booked for 8, meet in the bar at 7.30 for a drink before our meal. Everybody welcome!

A circular walk in the New Forest starting from Ashurst train station and heading south across Matley Heath into woodland, with a lunch stop about halfway round in Denny Inclosure. The route continues across more heathland, skirting past Beaulieu Road train station, returning via Churchplace Inclosure to our start point for a drink at the New Forest pub. Please wear appropriate shoes as the ground may be boggy/muddy in places and bring a packed lunch.

A circular walk from Stockbridge along the Test Way to Longstock and back. A morning walk, so please bring snacks and water. We'll go to the pub afterwards for a drink. Meet in the layby at the end nearest to Stockbridge high street.

Put on your dancing shoes (aka trainers) for an evening of ceilidh dancing with SHOCC Dances! £14 cash on the door and bring your own drinks. I've reserved 15 tickets for us. Please book on here rather than on the SHOCC website. If we become full, I can reserve more tickets. Meet at 7.15pm. Dancing will start at 7.30pm and finish at 11pm. If you've never done ceilidh dancing before, don't worry, they'll teach you all the steps. It's really fun and you're likely to get very sweaty! Please see their website for further details http://www.shocc.co.uk/ **Please note I am only organising and not necessarily attending. I will need to let SHOCC know the Tuesday before how many are attending from Hampshire Young Walkers so they can release any unused tickets to the public, so please book on before then**
