Keble Way

Follows a 12-mile circular route around Eastleigh, mixing urban stretches with surprising green corridors along the River Itchen and railway paths. Mostly flat with well-maintained surfaces, making it genuinely suitable for families and buggies on most sections, though a few stiles may require lifting. Dogs welcome throughout. Offers an accessible way to explore Eastleigh's heritage—from historic mills to modern transport links—without venturing into challenging countryside.

The Chestnut Trail

Meanders through peaceful woodland dominated by sweet chestnut trees, offering gentle, mostly flat terrain ideal for families with buggies and young children. Dogs welcome to explore the dappled forest paths. Perfect for a relaxed nature walk where you can spot wildlife, enjoy seasonal fungi, and experience the distinctive twisted trunks of ancient chestnuts—particularly atmospheric in autumn when fallen nuts carpet the ground.

Otter Trail

Follows the River Otter through peaceful meadows and riverside paths with gentle, mostly flat terrain ideal for families and buggies. Dogs welcome on leads near livestock. Expect muddy patches after rain and several stiles. Wildlife spotting is excellent – watch for otters at dawn or dusk, plus kingfishers and herons year-round. The easy gradient and rural charm make this perfect for a relaxed family outing with picnic opportunities along the water's edge.
