Liphook to Haslemere

t=1.6

Length: 15km (9m)
Toughness: 5 / 10
Transport: Take the 9:00 from London Waterloo, change at Haslemere to arrive at Liphook at 10:02. Return trains from Haslemere at xx:01, xx:10, xx:30.

A lovely autumn (or what's left of it) walk through woodlands. After lunch at the Red Lion in Fernhurst you have the highly recommended option to climb up to the Temple of the Winds and descend through the heathland of the Black Downs back to Haslemere. Tea is at the always popular Hemmingways in Haslemere.

Sandwiches may be required as the pub is fully booked until 2pm...

Let's hope for some unbookable bar tables, then. Backup sandwiches might be a good preparation, though.

I counted 16 Someone else counted 19. Lets say n=17 A w=dry-sunny-chilly day Plenty of autumn colour, plenty of big trees, views, horses, and even some geese. The group sped ahead leaving two amblers in their wake.
Im told the Red Lion was mot particularly welcoming so all went to the Fern cafe, where the two amblers caught them up.
In the afternoon most took a circuitous route visiting the Temple of the Winds on the way. But not Mr Tiger, no sirree. He followed the prescribed SWC route. In Haslemere, some went to the Swan, some went to Hemingways.
Another grand day out.
